	Solid! -- Jo Stafford
		One of the most important female vocalists of all time, Jo Stafford is probably best remembered today for her WWII recordings.
		Jo was featured solo on several occasions, and the group backed up Frank Sinatra on many of his early numbers.
		Her recordings during WWII were among the most popular with American servicemen, resulting in her being nicknamed ''G.I. Jo.'' In 1950 she moved from Capitol to CBS, where she continued her successful recording career until she returned to Capitol in 1961 for a six-album deal.

		Stafford abandoned his argument that the Trust was invalid from its inception by stipulating that the Trust was null and void as of May 9, 2002, and by failing to specifically reserve the issue for trial.
		Stafford's attorney "conceded [that] he had drafted a stipulation originally including language stating that the Trust was null and void ab initio" and that "[Ms.] Crane's attorney refused to agree the Trust would be declared void ab initio, and consequently [Mr.] Stafford's attorney agreed the phrase 'ab initio' could be taken out."

		A clear-voiced singer with no touch of vibrato, Stafford was one of the most versatile vocalists of the forties.
		Her cool voice was a key feature in the recordings of the Pied Pipers, while as Cinderella G. Stump she recorded the million selling parody of country music (and country accents), ‘Temptation’ or ‘Timtayshun’ as the song was billed on the label.
		Stafford started as part of a family singing act, the 'Stafford Sisters'.

	Songbirds: Jo Stafford
		Jo Stafford: I was born up in the San Joaquin Valley [in California] in a little town called Coalinga.
		Stafford: We were at the Palmer House [in Chicago] for about a month, then went to Minneapolis, and Tommy told us we were going to have a new singer.
		At just about that time Jo got all her masters back from Columbia, and also I became aware of the fact that copies of the old Jonathan and Darlene records were selling for 25 and 30 dollars, so instead of Gregorian chants we were in business initially with the Jonathan and Darlene records.

		N.Y.)"- it appears that Gordon was teamed with Jo Stafford for a total of 15 - 17 of his 78rpm records (30 -34 songs) from 1948 to 1951 as part of that effort.
		Jo’s voice has a startling purity which is able to convey emotion - particularly longing and pain - without employing distracting over-the-top ‘tricks".
		The conductor for all of these sessions was Jo’s husband Paul Weston who was Capitol’s main music director and A & R man in the late 40s and early 50s.

	Solid! -- Jo Stafford: G.I. Jo -- Songs of World War II
		Jo Stafford will always be remembered most for her romantic WWII ballads.
		Later in her career, Jo re-recorded her favorite war-era ballads, and the songs then were as fresh and as powerful as they were when they first went out over the airwaves in the early 1940s.
		It's easy to get lost inside a Jo Stafford recording, and these ten numbers draw you inside and paint a sentimental picture that stands the test of time.

		Born near Fresno, California, Stafford sang from an early age and was classically trained, though she later joined her sisters in a country-tinged act (associated for a time with Joe "Country" Washburne).
		Stafford gained her first solo spots on a pair of Dorsey band hits, "Yes, Indeed!" and "Manhattan Serenade." She finally left the Pied Pipers for a solo contract in 1944 (she was replaced by June Hutton), though the group provided back-up for many of her initial solo hits.
		Stafford also founded Corinthian Records, with Weston, to reissue the couple's various recordings.

		Jo Stafford had one of the best voices (deep, warm and sexy) in the history of popular music, and used it to great effect on a wide variety of songs covering many different genres.
		Jo's biggest hits from this period (all top ten or better) were You belong to me (number one, sold almost two million copies), Make love to me (also a number one), Shrimp boats, Jambalaya, Keep it a secret, Hambone, Tennessee waltz, If, Hey good lookin' and Ay round the corner.
		If this is your first Jo Stafford collection, your next step (assuming you enjoy this, which I'm sure you will) is a collection of her Capitol recordings, of which there are several to choose from.

	Yes Indeed: Jo Stafford Irish & Celtic Music at An Irish Christmas.com
		Although I understand those who appreciate the songs Ms Stafford made popular in the fifties, it is her singing of the great standards that I find immensely appealing - it is this combination that provides the reason this 4CD set is well worth the investment.
		Jo was one of the best singers of her generation, and this box clearly demonstrates that.
		The set covers Jo's entire period with Capitol, so it starts with a few songs featuring Jo as lead singer of the Pied Pipers doing typical big band stuff, but the remaining tracks all feature Jo as solo singer, with an occasional duet.

		Honey-toned vocalist and former Pied Piper Jo Stafford illuminates a dozen Scottish folk and popular lyrics from the pen of 18th century Scots poet Robert Burns with scores by Alton Rinker and backed by her collaborator and husband, Paul Weston.
		The palpably yearning sentiment in "John Anderson, My Jo" is the perfect vehicle for Stafford, as is "Comin' Through the Rye," one of only a handful of traditional melodies that Weston and Rinker astutely crafted to Stafford's rich tonality.
		For inclined parties, it doesn't get better than Jo Stafford, and Songs of Scotland is evidence of her capacious talents and equally impressive interpretive skills.

		This is an overlooked gem, a real jazz session with Jo Stafford a pop singer, performing jazz standrds with such jazz legends as Ben Webster with arranger Johnny Mandel.
		Stafford's slightly cold renditions of jazz standrds with Ben Websters warm playing make for a once in a lifetime masterpiece.

	GORDON MACRAE SINGS CD review
		However one of the most pleasing aspects of this collection is the selection of his collaborations with Jo Stafford with orchestra conducted by her husband Paul Weston accompanied occasionally by the Starlighters vocal group (sounding like Jo’s old group with the Tommy Dorsey orchestra - the Pied Pipers).
		Jo Stafford is constitutionally incapable of singing off-pitch.
		In all cases he takes the harmony part blending beautifully with Jo’s gorgeous voice, coming forward occasionally to sing the straight melody.

		If you've already got the boxed set (Yes indeed) covering Jo's music on Capitol and you've also got the best compilation of Jo's fifties music (Columbia hits collection), you'll have most but not all of the tracks here and on the other ASV collection.
		If you haven't got any of Jo's music, buying the two ASV compilations will give you most of her hits including all the essentials.
		Dedicated Jo Stafford fans may wish to buy all the compilations I've mentioned, together with the rarities collection (Jo Stafford on Capitol) just to have everything available - there are tracks on each that aren't available elsewhere - but it would involve a lot of duplication.

		One of the most technically gifted and popular vocalists of the immediate post-war period, Jo Stafford effortlessly walked the line between breezy pop and the more serious art of post-big-band jazz singing.
		With the help of her husband, top-flight arranger and Capitol A&R director Paul Weston, Stafford recorded throughout the '40s and '50s for Capitol and Columbia.
		She also contributed (with Weston) to one of the best pop novelty acts of the period, a hilariously inept and off-key satire that saw the couple billed as Jonathan and Darlene Edwards.
