Jo Stafford - The Ballad Of The Blue (with Interview)

If I could only have one CD this would be it. If you're feeling down, or just want to experience a bluesy kind of feeling listen to this album by the late Jo Stafford. This is her at her finest.



If you never heard of Jo Stafford (and shame on you if you haven't) :) Get this torrent. You will NOT be disapointed



This CD was produced by Michael Feinstein and includes a special interview with Jo Stafford interviewed by Mr Feinstein.



This album is a concept album, each of the tracks flows into anothter track so while it's possible to download them individually they are best heard as a group, because one track really doesn't end so much as flows directly into the next track.
