Peter and the Commissar is a 1964 musical comedy album by Allan Sherman, recorded live with Arthur Fiedler conducting the Boston Pops Orchestra and five guest jazz musicians.[1] The title track pokes fun at communism in the Soviet Union, and is a spoof of Peter and the Wolf by Sergei Prokofiev, with original spoken rhymed verse by Sherman.
