Anthem of the USSR (1977)

Red Army Chorus

Description: This version of the anthem came out in 1977, timed to the promulgation of the new Constitution. Stalin's name, mentioned in the original, had made it impossible to perform the lyrics of the anthem in public for many years. It was expunged from the new version.
