About
Alma Cogan connected the early British Music Hall with the 1950s Rock 'n' Roll era and 1960s Pop culture: her vast repertoire, as evidenced on this collection, embraced Comedy Songs, Ballads, Pop, and Rock 'n' Roll. Her dazzling exuberance and lust for life lit up an otherwise rather dull and dour Post-war Britain, letting in a little glamour and sunshine.
