Received this fantastic email the other day. How wonderful. He sure did a lot of work and I am so grateful for his help. Thank you, thank you. Now I just have to get off my butt and get my list updated. Will start working on this today.
Hi Marion, I am a big fan of all the great music you have provided ! Its great to hear so much WW2 era music in one place, love the website. It will fit in nicely with my own playlists. I enjoy it so much because I am WW2 history buff, probably because my Grand father served with the Canadian Army in WW2. Anyway, I noticed your songlist is incomplete, missing many of the artists names, so I did some research and found the artists for over 40 of the songs on the playlist(See attachment) Enjoy! Merry Christmas !
