"Swing Out to Victory: Songs of WWII [Box]" (06/08/1999) Easy Listening Various Artists, IntersoundThis is part of Intersound's Legends series. Includes liner notes by David Lennick. This is part of Intersound's Legends series. During World War II, the music business, like other areas of the entertainment industry, supported the war effort, in its case by turning out a lengthy series of popular songs intended to reassure jittery civilians, promote preparedness, inspire patriotism, and, more specifically, encourage the buying of war bonds, the conservation of materials, and adherence to rationing restrictions. This budget-priced four-CD set from Canada presents 40 examples of such songs, and it is a welcome effort, even if it is hardly the definitive statement on the subject. In fact, it is practically an alternative set, full of lesser known material. There are several original recordings of the biggest hit versions of war-related songs, and there are a few recordings that, if not the biggest hit versions, did reach the charts. Other songs were hits, if not in these versions, and a couple were sung in movies. But the knowledgeable (maybe even the casual) reader will note some important omissions, constituting some of the most popular and best-remembered songs of the war era. When you consider that the set's running time is under two hours (meaning it could have fit onto two discs instead of being spread across four), it's hard to understand -- you'd almost think this was the second, lesser volume of a series in which all the really well-known songs appeared on the first volume. As such, Swing Out to Victory! is an interesting collection of war-themed tunes with some hits and enjoyable obscurities, but not what you quite what you might expect. (The tracks were mastered from records, and while a noise reduction process was used, the sound quality varies.) ~ William Ruhlmann

"Those Great World War II Songs" (10/09/2001) Pop Vocal Crosby, Bing, Doubles (UK)As could be expected from the title, most of the selections on Those Great World War II Songs are military-themed, taken from Crosby's Kraft Music Hall shows of the early '40s. Unlike LaserLight's WWII Radio Broadcasts series, which issued complete broadcasts, this set includes the best songs on the first disc, while the second disc includes two complete broadcasts (with guest stars Phil Silvers and Bette Davis). Among the selections are "Yankee Doodle Dandy," "White Cliffs of Dover," "Comin in on a Wing and a Prayer," "What Do You Do in the Infantry?," and "Song of the Bombardiers," and while this set isn't for everyone, those fans who don't want to delve too deeply into the war broadcasts get a perfect overview of this important period in Crosby's career. ~ John Bush
