Our Take

As Time Goes By: World War II Songs is a nostalgic trip down memory lane, with various artists paying homage to the music of a bygone era. From Vera Lynn's iconic "We'll Meet Again" to Glenn Miller's swinging "In the Mood," this album is a veritable treasure trove of wartime classics. The production quality on this album is top-notch, with each track sounding crisp and clear. The arrangements are faithful to the original recordings, capturing the essence of the era with spot-on instrumentation and vocals. The orchestration on songs like "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square" is particularly impressive, transporting listeners back to a time when big bands ruled the airwaves. One of the standout tracks on the album is the hauntingly beautiful "Lili Marleen," sung with heartfelt emotion by Marlene Dietrich. Her velvety voice is perfectly suited to this wartime ballad, evoking a sense of longing and loss that is all too familiar to those who lived through the war. Overall, As Time Goes By: World War II Songs is a delightful collection of wartime favourites that will appeal to fans of the era and newcomers alike. Whether you're a history buff or just a fan of good music, this album is sure to transport you back in time to an era of rationing, resilience, and, of course, great music.
