"World War II Songs You Never Heard" by Betty Blanchard (Jazz Vocal Artist from Virginia)

Take a marvelous journey to the era of the 1940's with Betty Blanchard and her mini CD, "World War II Songs You Never Heard." This trio of songs were written by Blanchard some sixty plus years ago but have just recently been released. The vocals on this album are rich and textured as they blend superbly over the sweet, jazz like instruments. The song, "You're My Atomic Bomb" is a nostalgic throwback to a time when the war was finally over and soldiers were coming home. Reminisce of the Andrew Sisters style, "That's My G I," highlights multi- part harmonies that easily swirl around the upbeat and vibrant tempo. "We Haven't Got A Home To Our Name" is true cabaret style as the melodic melody swings with style and grace. The CD, "World War II Songs You Never Heard," reveals memorable music of the 1940's and one you will surely enjoy.
