Doris Day, Les Brown: "Those Were the Good Old Days"

As World War II ended in 1945, hundreds of men in the Armed Forces were anxious to get back home. A song was released that became so identified with that period of time that it has represented it ever since. That song is "Sentimental Journey".

BALTIMORE - Aug. 23, 2013 - PRLog -- The song: SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY.  The performing artists: Les Brown and His Orchestra with a vocal chorus by Doris Day. The year: 1945.  The rest is history.

No compilation of important music from the mid 1940's is complete without this recording. It became the #1 song of 1945. It started Doris Day on her way to an amazing career as a singer and then an actress and tv star. Les Brown  had the longest run as a bandleader than any other.  That winning combination of band and singer produced over 200 recorded songs, both released and unreleased.

Songs and Memories.Com just opened a page devoted to DORIS AND LES. Viewers can find it on the Navigation Menu of the website under the main heading page JUST DORIS DAY, under MUSIC.  Help to keep both the music and the history alive.  View the page, and listen once again  to all of those songs that are now collector's items.  Hear, too, some rare items: songs performed over the radio from either the Cafe Rouge in Manhattan or the Hollywood Palladium, complete with transcription noise from the original recordings, never released and seldom heard...untill now.

Hear Doris Day very early in her amazing career and see how she formed her deft singing talents at an early age.  Hear how beautifully her voice blends with the Band of Renown. Les and Doris...a winning combination...then and now.
