The Yiddish Are Coming! About The Record: The Yiddish Are Coming! The Yiddish Are Coming! 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 Command Headquarters, The Military Decision, and the titular closing skit to satirize military mishaps and cultural misunderstandings. Released during the 1960s Jewish comedy revival, sparked by Fiddler on the Roof and Booker and Foster?s earlier hit You Don?t Have to Be Jewish (1965), it reflects a post-Holocaust shift toward affectionate Jewish self-parody amid growing cultural acceptance. Following Booker?s shift from the Kennedy satire The First Family 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.
