THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK
JEROME KERN
COVER GIRL: ”LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY”
A tune this good can’t be kept under wraps, especially when the originating movie musical was such a major success. Everybody went into the studio that year to record it. Servicemen in the European and Pacific theaters of war listened to this and dreamed of returning home to their wives and sweethearts.
