Popular music from the 1930s, with some tracks dating earlier, and one or two from slightly later. Mostly popular "jazz" and torch songs with a little light opera, blues,"country," and few novelty tunes.

Depressing tittle, but spot-on mix from top to bottom. I would love to hear this. Great cover art too.
