  • Description

    60 tracks culled from the archive make up this wonderful celebration of the British Music Hall featuring all of the superstars of the genre, who perform comical, cautionary tales, and topical songs from the day. Though times have changed, many of these songs were considered daring and saucy when first recorded in the 1920s - 1940s.
