Wikipedia has an entry with a bit to say
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songs_of_the_Spanish_Civil_War#TomLeher has a point though, that singing songs can too easily be mistaken for politically significant
I’ve often felt like cultural work was enough, but if it doesn’t inspire action people might be misleading themselves about its importance

Tom Lehrer (94), who's mentioned as Richards favorite musician in my Incredible Doom Vol. 1, made his entire catalogue copyright free at a few weeks ago. Many of his recordings are available for free for a limited time on his website.
His song "I Hold Your Hand In Mine" was the first song I decided to memorize as a kid.
