Our Take

The Andrews Sisters could harmonize with the best of them, and "The Very Best Of" is a delightful collection of their greatest hits. From swingin' wartime tunes to catchy jingles, this album will transport you back to a simpler, sassier time when dames wore victory rolls and soldiers crooned along to radio broadcasts.

With their signature close vocal harmonies and infectious energy, the Andrews Sisters were the original girl group, paving the way for the likes of The Supremes and Destiny's Child. Tracks like "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" and "Rum and Coca-Cola" are sure to get your toes tapping and your hips swaying.

Sure, some of the lyrics may be a tad outdated (we're looking at you, "Pistol Packin' Mama"), but there's no denying the sheer joy and nostalgia that this album brings. So grab a martini, put on your dancing shoes, and let the Andrews Sisters whisk you away to a bygone era of swing and sass.

Overall, "The Very Best Of" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to inject a bit of vintage charm into their playlist. So do yourself a favour and give it a spin - you won't be disappointed. Cheers, darlings!

About the artist

The Andrews Sisters

The Andrews Sisters: Swing's Original Girl Group Picture this: it's the 1940s, swing music is in full swing (pun intended), and the airwaves are dominated by a trio of harmonizing powerhouse sisters known as the Andrews Sisters. La Verne, Maxene, and Patty Andrews burst onto the music scene with their infectious blend of close harmonies and sassy attitude that quickly captured the hearts of music fans around the world. With their unique vocal style and energetic performances, the Andrews Sisters became one of the most successful female acts of their era, selling over 90 million records and earning the nickname "America's Sweethearts." From upbeat tunes like "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" to sentimental ballads like "Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree," the Andrews Sisters' music was the perfect soundtrack for a generation experiencing the highs and lows of World War II. Despite their success, the sisters were known for their playful sibling rivalry and quirky personalities, often trading witty banter on stage and in interviews. Their infectious energy and sense of camaraderie made them beloved by fans of all ages, earning them a reputation as the ultimate girl group before the term even existed. While their heyday may be long gone, the Andrews Sisters' influence can still be felt in the music industry today, with artists like The Puppini Sisters and Postmodern Jukebox paying homage to their iconic sound. So next time you're in the mood for some vintage vibes and toe-tapping tunes, give the Andrews Sisters a spin and let their swingin' harmonies transport you to a bygone era of music magic.
