Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
Includes liner notes by Billy Vera.
Songs That Got Us Through WW2, Vol. 2 collects more early-'40s pop favorites like Dinah Shore's "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To," Roy Rogers' "San Fernando Valley," and Johnny Mercer's "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe." More overtly war-themed songs such as Buddy Johnson & His Orchestra's "When My Man Comes Home," Louis Jordan's "Ration Blues," and Lionel Hampton & His Orchestra's "Flying Home" provide reflections -- some humorous, some poignant -- of wartime life at home and "over there," while the Pied Pipers' "Mairzy Doats," Woddy Herman's "Caldonia," and other whimsical songs offer some well-deserved escapism. Marlene Dietrich's "Lili Marlene," Billy Holiday's "Lover Man (Oh, Where Can You Be?)," and Bing Crosby's "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby?" are among the other highlights of this nostalgic collection. ~ Heather Phares
