I'm getting content ID copyright warnings [not strikes] on audio recordings from the 1940s/50s.

> audio recordings

Recordings are copyrightable even if the underlying music is public domain. If you record a performance of Mozart's 40th symphony on your phone, you can be sued for copyright violations by the concert hall. (Don't be surprised that concert halls perform for more than just the attendees.)
