About

Originally issued on Silva Screen this recording has been licensed for the Carl Davis Collection to honour the 70th anniversary of World War 2.

The series is continually on the television networks and as a result there is a constant demand for the music from the series.

The album also hosts many of the songs of the time.

With Vera Lynn reaching number 1 in the charts recently it is an appropriate time for this re-issue.
