When that Man is Dead and Gone (1941)
Protest song against Hitler (Live Take)
Lizzy & the Triggermen
In 1941, Irving Berlin wrote a powerful protest song about Hitler. It's only been recorded a few times - most memorably by the incredible Al Bowlly (who, tragically, was killed in a Nazi airstrike only 2 weeks after recording it). Our Lizzy & the Triggermen arrangement is by the amazing Dan Barrett (with lots of loving homage to the Bowlly version). We did this in a live take.
