Pauca exemplaria in manibus collectorum privatorum manere possunt. Almanac Singers accusati sunt—illo tempore et in historiis sequentibus—de habitibus inversis cum novis Factionis Communistae edictis responderent, sed "Seeger indicavit paene omnes progressivos iter flexisse et bellum sustinuisse. Certum est ei neminem, aut in Factione Communistica aut aliter, Almanac Singers iussisse ut ei eorum carmina mutarent."—Seeger, conloquium cum [Richard A.] Reuss 4 Septembris 1968), citatus in William G. Roy, "Who Shall Not Be Moved? Folk Music, Community and Race in the American The Communist Party and the Highlander School," p. 16.

Vide "Totalitarian Troubadour" a Ioanne Fund scriptus in National Review Online, 29 Ianuarii 2014: "Just one month after the album was released, Hitler invaded the Soviet Union. The album was quickly withdrawn from circulation, and Seeger and his buddies immediately did a 180-degree turn and came up with new songs."
Recognitio Friedrichana finivit: "The three records sell for one dollar and you are asked to ‘play them in your home, play them in your union hall, take them back to your people.’ Probably some of these songs fall under the criminal provisions of the Selective Service Act, and to that extent it is a matter for the Attorney-General. But you never can handle situations of this kind democratically by mere suppression. Unless civic groups and individuals will make a determined effort to counteract such appeals by equally effective methods, democratic morale will decline." Bello a Civitatibus Foederatis denuntiato, Friedrich anno 1942 factus praeses Consilii ad Administrationem Pertinentis Concilii pro Democratia, cum isolationismo pugnare iussus, ac fecit ut suus commentarius de Almanac Singers iterum typis imprimeretur, unus ex nonnullis libellorum quos ad administratoribus operum reticulatorum radiophonicorum misit.
Vide " Pete Seeger, Troubedour for Tyranny, is Dead at 94,"Yahoo Voices, Marci Whittington, 29 Ianuarii 2014. Whittington scribit: "Seeger was a supporter of some of the worst mass murderers of the 20th Century. As a Communist Party member in the 1940s he was a supporter of Adolf Hitler after the Nazi/Soviet Nonaggression Pact, even going so far as to pillory Franklin Roosevelt in song for opposing Nazi Germany up until the very day Hitler invaded Russia. Then he changed his tune, as it were, without missing a beat and became a supporter of war against Germany, obedient to the dictates of the Communist Party.”
