[Dixielandjazz] Jonathan & Darlene Edwards

[Hal Vickery]

Jo Stafford was one of my dad's favorite singers, and I remember hearing a lot of her music as I grew up.  I love her voice, her phrasing, everything about her.

And then there's that other side of her, with Cinderella G. Stump with Red Ingle and as Darlene Edwards with Paul Weston as Jonathan Edwards.  Some of the best comedy music ever created!

Still for me, this is the ultimate Jo Stafford...a thing of beauty:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H1Imb6jm0U<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H1Imb6jm0U>
Did anyone ever have a more gorgeous voice?

  To hear a few clips from Jo Stafford & Paul Weston parodies of bad  
  lounge acts, go to:

  Be sure to listen to "Take The A Train" and "Don't Get Around Much  
  Anymore". <grin>
