The gramaphone music installed with GWX 2.0 has some songs playing in 1939 that did not exist, like "Johnny Got a Zero". That was not a popular song until after Pearl Harbor, sometime in 1942.

I deleted all the GWX 2.0 and stock SH3 gramaphone files, since I use a 495Meg collection of songs I have accumulated and sorted into the proper years and months, and SH3 Commander randomly selects them for me based on the date of the patrol.

This avoids hearing songs from, say 1943, played as my patrol starts in Sept. 1939. Being a bit of a music buff, this is an important realism aspect for me.
