Thread Name: Lyr Add:The Ballad of Stalin (songs about Stalin)
Subject: RE: ADD:The Ballad of Stalin (and other Stalin songs)
In the 70s I picked up a children's songbook of Lenin in the then U.S.S.R. It was called "Lenin Vsyegda S'Toboi" (Lenin is always with you). I imagine there must have been MANY books such as this only in regard to Stalin over the years of his dominance. The only mention of his name during my stay was on a train-ride where one of my American companions told a story about Stalin indicating that 10 million lives were lost during Collectivization.
