Recorded 23 & 30 April 1951 with exception od track 4 that was recorded 11 Sept 1950 with other religios. This sweet “family” movie tells the tale about baseball-playing tomboy, Marjorie Winfield (Doris Day). These perky, pretty songs tie in beautifully with the story that is set in 1917. In actual fact the title-tune originates from this period in history as it was first published in 1912. The fabulous US CD re-issue of this LP also includes as an added bonus the songs from the movie’s sequel.
