Title: The 75th Anniversary VE Day Collection Condition: New Format: CD EAN: 0824046333522 Edition: Album Genre: Rock/Pop Style: Compilation Release Date: 01/05/2020 Description: This 50-track 2-CD set brings together hit recordings from the USA and UK which were part of that soundtrack to the war effort, and most of which were big chart hits in the USA (the UK did not yet have a records sales chart). From emotional classics like Vera Lynn's 'We'll Meet Again' and 'White Cliffs of Dover' through the swing hits of Glen Miller which kept people dancing through the dark times, to the songs of longing and the rousing exhortations of patriotic anthems, it captures the unique spirit of the times.
