Glenn Miller: Chattanooga Choo Choo (1941)

This appeared in the film Sun Valley Serenade in 1941. It was #1 the weekend of December 7, 1941. The war informed our view of pop culture and music during the 40s. However, the Big Band Era was brief. Bebop snobs took over sending popular music into an abyss for a decade.
