Florence Reece - Which Side Are You On? (1931)

Reece was the wife of a union organiser during a bloody miners’ strike in Harlan County, Kentucky. After harassment by the mine owners, she wrote this song. Like all early protest songs, it borrowed an old melody, in this case the Baptist hymn “Lay the Lily Low”. This song has been covered by many, many artists, most famously Pete Seeger.

Toni Fisher recorded a moderately successful song in 1962, about the Berlin Wall. Construction of the wall had begun less than a year before this record was released. It went to #1 on the Australian hit parade, but only #37 on Billboard. It was written by Wayne Shanklin, who had many hits to his credit, and sung by his wife. Neither had any personal connection to Germany.
