Our Take

Anne Shelton's "Lili Marlene" is a timeless classic that still manages to tug at our heartstrings, even after 60 years. This centenary tribute collection showcases Shelton's finest hits from 1940 to 1960, reminding us why she was one of the most beloved voices of her time.

From the hauntingly beautiful "Lili Marlene" to the toe-tapping "Coming in on a Wing and a Prayer," Shelton's velvety vocals and emotive delivery shine through on every track. Her ability to convey both heartache and hope in a single breath is nothing short of mesmerising.

But it's not just Shelton's voice that steals the show - the orchestral arrangements and lush production on these recordings are the perfect backdrop for her distinctive sound. The swelling strings and soaring melodies transport listeners back to a bygone era of glamour and romance.

Standout tracks like "There'll Always Be an England" and "Be Like the Kettle and Sing" showcase Shelton's versatility as a performer, effortlessly blending patriotism with wistful nostalgia. And of course, no Anne Shelton collection would be complete without the iconic "Lay Down Your Arms," a powerful anti-war anthem that still resonates today.

In conclusion, Anne Shelton's "Lili Marlene" is a must-have for fans of classic wartime music. With its timeless appeal and heartfelt performances, this centenary tribute is a fitting celebration of Shelton's enduring legacy in the music industry. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
