Why is the music surrounding the holidays so impactful and memorable in our lives? The 1940s especially produced significant holiday music from songwriters like Irving Berlin, crooners like Bing Crosby, and big bands like the Glenn Miller Orchestra, just to name a few. Music helped the world climb out of a terrible war and light up the holidays with a new-found joy. Our good friend, Steve Toll of ComForCare, joins us on today's show introducing our listeners to the many sounds of holiday music we all remember. Sing along and pass the eggnog! #Portland
