Description
|
|
|
|
The 1940s was a decade in which a preponderance of the population pretty much grooved to the same popular music. This is great stuff, and because there's so much of it here we'll devote our blurb space to as many of the highlights as we can cram in. Here goes: "God Bless the Child" by Billie Holiday; "Tuxedo Junction," "Chattanooga Choo Choo," and "(I've Got a Gal In) Kalamazoo" by Glenn Miller; "Swinging on a Star," "Don't Fence Me In," and "I'll Be Seeing You" by Bing Crosby; "Stormy Weather" by Lena Horne; "Jingle, Jangle, Jingle" by the Merry Macs; "Frenesi" and "Stardust" by Artie Shaw; "Take the 'A' Train" by Duke Ellington; "Paper Doll" and "You Always Hurt the One You Love" by the Mills Brothers; "A String of Pearls" by Benny Goodman; "Sentimental Journey" by Les Brown; "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" by the Andrews Sisters; "'Round Midnight" by Thelonious Monk; and "That Lucky Old Sun" by Frankie Laine.
