WW2 American Wars Songs. “Stalin Wasn’t Stallin’ (A Modern Spiritual)“ was an American patriotic song written in 1943 by Willie Johnson and originally recorded by the a cappella gospel group Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet (of which Johnson was a member) in 1943. Robert Wyatt recorded a cover of the song in 1980. “Stalin Wasn’t Stallin’“ was written during World War II, and praises the efforts of Joseph Stalin in his stand against Adolf Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union. United States president Franklin D. Roosevelt had declared in a July 28, 1943 speech that: The world has never seen greater devotion, determination, and self sacrifice, that have been displayed by the Russian people and their armies under the leadership of Marshall Joseph Stalin. The United States and the Soviet Union were allies during the war and many decisive battles occurred between the Soviets and Germany that changed the direction of the war.
