The Yiddish Are Coming!\u003c\/span\u003e is a 1967 comedy album by producers Bob Booker and George Foster, featuring comedians like Lou Jacobi, Phil Leeds, and Len Maxwell in sketches portraying a fictional Yiddish invasion of France during World War II. The album uses exaggerated Yiddish dialects and Borscht Belt humor in tracks like \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eCommand Headquarters\u003c\/span\u003e, \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eThe Military Decision\u003c\/span\u003e, and the titular closing skit to satirize military mishaps and cultural misunderstandings. Released during the 1960s Jewish comedy revival, sparked by \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eFiddler on the Roof\u003c\/span\u003e and Booker and Foster’s earlier hit \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eYou Don’t Have to Be Jewish\u003c\/span\u003e (1965), it reflects a post-Holocaust shift toward affectionate Jewish self-parody amid growing cultural acceptance. Following Booker’s shift from the Kennedy satire \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eThe First Family\u003c\/span\u003e after JFK’s 1963 assassination, this album helped solidify Yiddish-themed comedy records, influencing comedians like Woody Allen and Mel Brooks. Its ensemble sketches made it a cult favorite among fans of ethnic humor albums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Record Vision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52793597198617,"sku":"V6-15058","price":9.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/6937\/8329\/files\/LP-bob_booker_and_george_foster-the_yiddish_are_coming_the_yiddish_are_coming.jpg?v=1783553440","url":"https:\/\/record-vision.myshopify.com\/products\/v6-15058","provider":"Record Vision","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
