Archivists have been sorting through the extensive collection of discs and tapes with a fine-tooth comb ever since. Amongst these records, a set of three silver-coloured aluminium master discs were discovered. Two of the discs are labelled by hand with the song titles, 'What a Difference a Day Makes' and 'Spring Don't Mean a Thing to Me' and the other is unlabelled. Using specialist equipment, musicology experts at the British Library were able to listen to these masters and identify them as audition tapes, confirming that these are the first recordings in existence of a voice that went on to become one of the most recognisable, reassuring and beloved voices in the history of music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist: \u003cbr\u003eDisc 1\u003cbr\u003eWe’ll meet again\u003cbr\u003eThere’ll be Bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover\u003cbr\u003eWhat a Difference a Day makes\u003cbr\u003eWish me luck as you wave me goodbye\u003cbr\u003eAuf Weiderseh’n Sweetheart\u003cbr\u003eAs Time Goes By\u003cbr\u003eWhen you wish Upon a Star\u003cbr\u003eA Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square\u003cbr\u003eSailing\u003cbr\u003eFrom the Time You Say Goodbye\u003cbr\u003eDream\u003cbr\u003eWishing (Will Make it So)\u003cbr\u003eTravellin’ Home\u003cbr\u003eHarbour Lights\u003cbr\u003eWhen I Grow too Old to Dream\u003cbr\u003eHow Green was my Valley\u003cbr\u003eHome Sweet Home\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDisc 2\u003cbr\u003eIt’s Home\u003cbr\u003eSpring don’t mean a thing\u003cbr\u003eI Hate Myself (for being so mean to you)\u003cbr\u003eIt’s a Lovely Day, Tomorrow\u003cbr\u003eWhen the Lights go On Again\u003cbr\u003eYou’ll Never Know\u003cbr\u003eFaraway Places\u003cbr\u003eYours\u003cbr\u003eI’ll Pray for You\u003cbr\u003eThe Bell’s of St Mary’s\u003cbr\u003eClose to You\u003cbr\u003eGoodnight Children, Everywhere\u003cbr\u003eI Hear a Dream\u003cbr\u003eShine on Harvest Moon\u003cbr\u003eThe Woodpecker Song\u003cbr\u003eSomeone’s Rocking my dreamboat\u003cbr\u003eWhite Christmas\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDisc 3  \u003cbr\u003eWhat a difference a day makes (original)\u003cbr\u003eVera Lynn Selected (original)\u003cbr\u003eHome (original)\u003cbr\u003eSpring don’t mean a thing (original)\u003cbr\u003eI Hate Myself (for being so mean to you) (original)\u003cbr\u003eWhen You Wish Upon a Star (feat.
