Kickin' Hitler's Butt - Vintage Anti-Fascist Songs 1940-1944
Liam Mac Uaid
Burl Ives’ part in Hitler’s defeat has been ignored for too long. This bloodthirsty little ditty refers to lynching the Fuehrer and hanging Mussolini like a piece of meat. It’s from the album Kicking Hitler’s Butt – Vintage Anti-Fascist Songs 1940-44 and can be downloaded from all the usual places. Ives was a member of the group The Almanac Singers and perhaps someone can fill in the details about his politics.
