My Memory She's unforgettable

George Pease Jul 01, 2009

I remember Jo and the Pied Pipers, and Iove them both. One of my favorites by
Jo is Early Autumn. I found it on a juke box in Beaver Falls; Pa when I worked there
in the early l950's. The customers in the restaurant where I ate must have thought
that I had some kind of an obsession with Jo Stafford, given the many times that I
would play the song. The career of Jo Stafford is amazing. Her voice is so distinctive
and so evocative of my memories of the '40's and '50's. Thank God for a talent such
as hers. George Pease, age 75.

My favorite Jo Stafford song is "Haunted Heart". Does anyone remember that beautiful love song? Such great lyrics. Most of the singers from the past are gone now. The only ones left are Doris Day, Keely Smith and Tony Bennett. (Margaret Whiting?) Too bad the good music with real musicians and good vocalists will never return. I feel fortunate that I lived during that era.
