The Love Song Collection

WITH
A SONG IN MY HEART
A
lovely collection of songs from the '30s and '40s. So why sing them
again? To keep them alive, to keep some sweet innocence in our
revolution, to share them with our parents–those who have
disapproved of us, those who have envied us, and those who have
mentored us. |
