About this product

Squeezebox maestro John Kirkpatrick has recorded a glorious selection of songs from World War I and II in a program that highlights two different kinds of material - there's a smattering of the popular hits of the day, interspersed with a selection of songs sung on the front line by service personnel. In the main this is a celebration of the comradeship and spirit that allowed those previous generations to Keep Smiling Through. These are the songs these people sang at the time, with the straightforward attitude that was prevalent amongst our glorious forebears - we're all in this together, so buck up and get on with it. It's a sensational and occasionally poignant musical feast. Album Tracks 1. 01. Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag/It's a Long, Long Way to Tipperary 2. 02. the Squaddie in London 3. 03. Old Joe Mills 4. 04. Lloyd George's Beer 5. 05. Cleanin' My Rifle (And Dreamin' of You) 6. 06. the Thing-Ummy-Bob (That's Going to Win the War) 7. 07. Here's to the Mums and Dads 8. 08. I Didn't Raise My Boy to Be a Soldier 9. 09. Down Forget-Me Not Lane/They Can't Black Out the Moon/When They Sound the Last All Clear 10. 10. Run, Rabbit, Run 11. 11. Would You Rather Be a Colonel?/Sister Susie's Sewing Shirts for Soldiers 12. 12. Wish Me Luck As You Wave Me Goodbye/(We're Gonna Hang Out) the Washing on the Siegfried Line/Kiss Me Goodnight, Sergeant Major/Bugle Call - InchRouseInch/Browned Off 13. 13. Never Mind the Food Controller 14. 14. the Dying Soldier 15. 15. Keep the Home Fires Burning/The Last Long Mile
