It stands as an indispensable addition for vinyl enthusiasts and vintage pop collectors alike

Little Things: A Decade Of Hits 1943-54 celebrates the remarkable career of Kitty Kallen, one of the defining vocalists of the swing and traditional pop era. Rising from childhood radio performances in Philadelphia to collaborations with Jimmy Dorsey and Harry James, Kallen became one of the most beloved voices of the 1940s before achieving enormous solo success with the timeless chart-topper 'Little Things Mean A Lot.' Her warm, conversational delivery and emotional sincerity allowed her to move effortlessly between sophisticated big band arrangements and intimate pop ballads.

This sixteen-track collection chronicles Kallen's artistic evolution across a decade of classic recordings, from wartime favorites including 'They're Either Too Young Or Too Old' and 'Star Eyes' to enduring standards such as 'It's Been A Long, Long Time,' 'My Heart Belongs To Daddy,' and her signature million-selling hit 'Little Things Mean A Lot.' Together, these performances capture the transition from the swing era into the refined popular vocal style that defined postwar America.

Presented on vinyl, Little Things: A Decade Of Hits 1943-54 is an essential retrospective honoring one of the most elegant and influential vocalists of the twentieth century.
