Our Take

Ah, the year 1939, a time where swing was king and the world was on the brink of war. In the midst of it all, the music scene was booming with hits from various artists that would go on to define the era. And now, in glorious remastered form, we have the VARIOUS ARTISTS Hit Parade 1939 album.

As we dive into this musical time capsule, we are greeted with the smooth crooning of Bing Crosby on "Deep in a Dream" followed by the swinging sounds of Glenn Miller and His Orchestra on "Sunrise Serenade." The infectious energy of the Andrews Sisters on "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen" is simply irresistible, transporting you back to a time where the world was a little less complicated.

But don't be fooled by the seemingly upbeat nature of these songs, as tracks like Billie Holiday's haunting rendition of "Strange Fruit" serve as a sobering reminder of the darker realities of the time.

Overall, the VARIOUS ARTISTS Hit Parade 1939 album is a delightful journey through the sounds of a bygone era. While not without its flaws, it's a nostalgic trip well worth taking for any music lover looking to escape the chaos of the modern world and bask in the golden age of swing. 8.5/10.
