1945 Hits Archive

Mom and I finished listening to the 1945 Hits Archive available via the78prof's YouTube channel. We were both a little disappointed with this year's offerings. Especially early on in the alphabet. (The playlist is arranged alphabetically by song title.) But the year did have some great songs.

For your reference:

I've heard most of them, especially Sentimental Journey. This is one of my favorite periods of music: WW2 years.
