The songs are the genuine article – songs about knitting and keeping the home fires burning for “the boys” fighting overseas during World War II. Knitting socks and mittens for the troops as an integral part of the war effort may sounds corny now, but it was part of the American culture back then. The only song I recognized was the exquisite “We’ll Meet Again”. Gall channels Vera Lynn very effectively; she brought a lump to my throat when she sang.
