Annotation — US Domestic Perspective Songs
This one was released on a Mexican record label (Orfeón # 2188) although seems to be distributed in the US. Both songs were popular with Mexican-American artists, as seen on this list: "Carta de un soldado" and "El padre del soldado". The artist biography is unknown at this time, thus unsure if Mexican or Mexican-American.
