About:
This album will bring memories for your parents and grandparents, age
depending of course.
Songs and music has always been used to lift the spirits and that was never reflected as much
during the dark days of the second world war.
Songs that were cheery, upbeat, comedic and songs for the heart, key ingredients to keep up
morale and that is all captured on this 6 cd set.
The collection starts and ends with Vera Lynn with We'll Meet Again and
The White Cliffs Of Dover (what else?) and everywhere you look there's a
familiar song and a few surprises.
No wartime compilation would be complete without The Andrews Sisters or Gracie Fields
and yes, they are here too.
There are some magical names in this collection: Geraldo, Joe Loss, Al Bowlly, who
conjure up images of old black and white newsreels.
There's a bit of fun with Robb Wilton's The Home Guard, Flanagan and Allen,
George Formby and Tommy Trinder with Der Fuhrer's Face - a song made
famous by Spike Jones.
The Big Bands such as those of Leslie `Hutch' Hutchinson and Ivy Benson's
All Girl Band feature, and Joe Loss and His Orchestra perform great versions
of some of the Glenn Miller hits.
When Britain was up against it, these songs kept the people going and wherever
the British and Allied troops were stationed help to remind them of home and
keep their spirits up, the music of this era is worth preserving and that is exactly
what this cd collection has achieved.
