"I would agree with 1946 - 1950...."
These tunes, among others, reached number one on the pop charts during 1941-1945:
Jimmy Dorsey "My Sister And I"
Jimmy Dorsey "Maria Elena"
Sammy Kaye "Daddy"
Jimmy Dorsey "Blue Champagne"
Freddy Martin "Piano Concerto In A Flat"
Glenn Miller "Moonlight Cocktail"
Harry James "Sleepy Lagoon"
Dick Haymes "You'll Never Know"
Mills Brothers "Paper Doll"
Glen Gray "My Heart Tells Me"
Guy Lombardo "It's Love-Love-Love"
Bing Crosby "I Love You"
The Ink Spots and Ella Fitzgerald "I'm Making Believe"
Les Brown "My Dreams Are Getting Better All The Time"
Perry Como "Till The End Of Time"
Sammy Kaye "Chickery Chick"
Was that era really so different from later years re "blandness"?
