Vera Lynn "100"

Spotify listen:

the "UK darling of WWII"....
just turned a 100 last week...
album is a compilation of old classics
with original vocals and modern technology...
like the Elvis orchestrated album of the last couple
of years, its made with the respect she deserves..
one previously unreleased track on here, a cover of
Rod Stewart's "sailing"...not bad for a cover...
album is ok, a nice tribute, but that's about it.

from the album:

"BTO....Bachman,Turner,Overweight
They were big in the 70s....for five minutes,on a Saturday,after lunch..."  -  Me 2014.

She also holds the record as the only centenarian on the BOTD thread.
I made a mistaken post earlier with “Sailing” which is not Rod’s but the Sutherland Brothers. Brain went awol. Lol!!
I had said Christopher Cross, whose own “Sailing” is a totally different thing of course! :eek::redface:
