Thread Name: D.Behan, Dylan, Ives, and JO STAFFORD!?

Rick: I don't just read the political threads! I remember Jo Stafford very well, and felt that she was the best of the "girl" singers in the 40's. "Shrimp Boats," I remember very well, and I'd love to hear the LP Art referred to.

Was the title of the song she recorded in 1948 the same as the one recorded by Burl Ives?

LH: as we say so often on the Mudcat, everyone has a right to his/her own opinion. I personally am of the opinion that Bob Dylan sings a tad better than Andy Devine.
