Love Songs of WWII Limited Edition 4 CD Set -
Imagine yourself back in the 1940s, smack dab in the middle of World War II and listening to your radio for any news of the American efforts in Europe and hoping that the end of the war would be soon. Long before the age of television and digital information, families huddled around the dial of the radio in the center of the living room and listened for news of the war and hoping that their loved ones were safe so far away from home. The familiar sounds of the big band orchestras rang out of the tiny speakers, brining us the melodies that would be the soundtrack of the war and reminding us that no matter how far away that special someone was, our love was a strong as ever. Songs that would go on to become some of the greatest and most cherished of all time and be recorded over and over again by the great entertainers of popular music history. Artists like Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey and great vocalists like Billie Holiday, Marlene Dietrich and Ella Fitzgerald brought us the love songs that made our heart beat just a little bit stronger each time they played. Love songs like Body and Soul , Stardust , Honeysuckle Rose and I ve Got My Love to Keep Me Warm . This special limited edition four CD collection of Forty of those cherished love songs of WWII is now available at this special low price, all packaged in a retro 40 s album jacket featuring period art design . All tracks are historical radio recordings or live concert tracks preserved and cleaned as best as possible for your listening pleasure.
