Glen Miller - Glen Miller 1940 (2019)

The Glenn Miller Orchestra was a swing orchestra originally formed in 1938 by Glenn Miller. Earned 22 number-one hits in less than four years, the most successful short-term dominance of the charts ever. Signature song 'In the Mood' became an anthem of the times. Sold over 60 million records, the most of any swing band. Disbanded in late 1942 as Glenn Miller joined Army where he created a band, for purposes of morale raising. In 1944, Miller mysteriously disappeared over the English Channel. He was recognized as war hero and three posthumous number-one albums as well as records of the band certified Gold (selling over 500,000 copies) more than 40 years after his death proved his music enduring.
