Our Take

I'm Jazzy Jess, your resident music snob with a penchant for vintage tunes and sassy vocals. Today, we're diving into the delightful world of Helen Forrest and her Hits Collection from 1938-1946.

This album is like stepping back in time to the golden age of swing, where big bands ruled the airwaves and crooners reigned supreme. Helen's silky smooth voice dances effortlessly over lush arrangements, transporting you to a smoky jazz club in the heart of the roaring '40s.

Tracks like "I Had The Craziest Dream" and "I Don't Want To Walk Without You" showcase Helen's impeccable vocal control and emotive delivery. Each note is like a brushstroke on a musical canvas, painting a picture of love, loss, and everything in between.

But it's not all heartbreak and longing - Helen also knows how to have a good time. "Taking A Chance On Love" and "All The Things You Are" bring a playful energy to the mix, with swinging rhythms and toe-tapping melodies that are impossible to resist.

Overall, Helen Forrest's Hits Collection is a timeless treasure that reminds us of the beauty and power of vintage music. So grab your cocktail shaker, slip into your best vintage threads, and let Helen's enchanting voice serenade you into a bygone era of glamour and romance. Cheers, darlings.
