Our Take

The Various Artists collection, "The 20th Century Fox Years Volume 2 (1939-1943)," is a musical time machine that transports listeners back to the golden era of Hollywood soundtracks. Packed full of swingin' tunes and classic movie magic, this compilation is sure to have you tapping your feet and humming along in no time.

From the jazzy elegance of tracks like "Moonlight Serenade" to the upbeat energy of "In the Mood," this album has something for everyone. The orchestration is lush and vibrant, perfectly capturing the glitz and glamour of the era. It's like a musical cocktail party, with each track serving up a different flavour to savour.

But it's not all smooth sailing on this voyage through the 20th Century Fox years. Some tracks may feel a bit dated to modern ears, with their nostalgic charm bordering on cheesy at times. And while the music is undeniably catchy, it lacks some of the depth and complexity that contemporary listeners may crave.

Overall, "The 20th Century Fox Years Volume 2" is a joyous romp through the sounds of yesteryear. It may not be the most groundbreaking collection, but it's a fun and light-hearted listen that will transport you back to a simpler time. So sit back, relax, and let the music take you on a journey through the magic of Hollywood's golden age.
