Jazz and big band still reigned supreme during the early forties as signs of do-wop and rock & roll music were brewing beneath the surface. Music was deliberately designed to distract a devastated nation. Some of the iconic names in American music surfaced during these wartime years. Name like Dizzy Gillespie, Benny Goodman, Count Basie and Tommy Dorsey were topping the charts. Blues and early American pop were also on the forefront with greats such as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Shore, Kate Smith, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra and Perry Como. Their various styles of music crossed over lines of genres and an entire smorgasbord of music was being served up to an ever-changing community of listeners.
