  • Jo April 2019.PPP
    An alphabetical listing of her studio recordings, including recording dates, matrix numbers and, when known, dates first issued. Compiled by Jim Marshall, and updated April 2019 I first produced a Jo Stafford discography ‘way back in 1995, encouraged by the late Tom Colborn who probably knew more about Jo’s career than the lady herself. Tom had already done much of the groundwork and, knowing that I’d acquired a computer - an early Amstrad - suggested that I take over the task. I was well into my research when the indispensable "In Tune" magazine started publishing its own in-depth listing of Jo’s huge catalogue of recordings. The work put into that by Brian Henson, Colin Morgan, Robert W. Rice and others was an immeasurable help. My thanks also go to Ken Seavor, John Ridgeway, Lucas Tuinstra, Jeff Lasbury and Ray Purslow plus, of course Jo Stafford and Paul Weston , all of whom contributed to Tom’s original research. More recently I’ve had important help from Michel Ruppli, Tim Weston, Robert Rice, Richard Weize and Adam Daff resulting in what I like to think is an almost “complete" alphabetical listing of Jo’s commercial recordings, including her work with the Pied Pipers and her alter egos, Cinderella G. Stump and Darlene Edwards, not forgetting Jonathan! (Apologies if I’ve forgotten anyone!) Apart from a handful of never-ever issued Capitol and Columbia tracks, almost all Jo’s studio recordings seem to have been reissued on CD and are probably still in print. In fact, the seemingly relentless reissue of Stafford CDs, mainly in the UK, is proof, if proof was needed, of the lady’s long-lasting popularity.

  • Capitol Records High Fidelity Recording” on Three Lines – in a Manner That Would Become the Label’S “Logo” for Hi-Fi Albums
    Capitol Albums, 401 to 500 and A Word About High Fidelity In 1953 and 1954, Capitol was shifting from a market dominated by 78 RPM singles to one where the 45 RPM single was rapidly increasing in popularity. Along with that change, the long-playing record was becoming more popular. Capitol adopted RCA Victor’s new “extended play” format “whole hog” at the beginning of the year. Between January and April, 1953, they released dozens of new and reissue releases as double EP’s. They also determined that they could release half of an eight-song album on a single EP, and half on another EP. Dean Martin Sings Capitol EBF-401 = H-401 Dean Martin Released January, 1953.

    Cal Poly Arts Brings 'Oklahoma!' to Cohan Center http://www.calpolynews.calpoly.edu/news_releases/2006/April/Ok... Skip to Content Search Cal Poly News News California Polytechnic State University April 5, 2005 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: LISA WOSKE (805) 756-7110 'Oklahoma!' Comes to Cohan Center May 2 SAN LUIS OBISPO– The newly conceived national tour of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein's landmark musical, “Oklahoma!” has been hailed by the New York Daily News as “fresh, vital and stunning!” Cal Poly Arts presents “Oklahoma!” -- the final 2005/06 Cal Poly Arts season performance – on Tuesday, May 2, at 7 p.m. in the Christopher Cohan Center. Former San Luis Obispo resident and popular actress Pat Sibley is part of the national touring cast, performing the major supporting role of “Aunt Eller.” Based on the Lynn Riggs' play, “Green Grow The Lilacs," “Oklahoma!” was Rodgers & Hammerstein's first collaboration and remains, in many ways, their most innovative. The show set the standards for modern musical theatre and features such classic numbers as "Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin'," "People Will Say We're In Love," "The Surrey With The Fringe On Top" and the rousing title song. Set in the territory of Oklahoma at the turn of the century, against a background of the rivalry between cattlemen and farmers, “Oklahoma!” is the story of the farm girl Laurey and the two rivals for her affection: the cowboy Curly and Jud, the brooding farmhand. Written in 1943, “Oklahoma!” became an instant hit for Rodgers & Hammerstein, launching a remarkable career that went on to include the musicals “Carousel,” “The King and I,” “South Pacific,” and “The Sound of Music.” The longest-running musical of its time – a record held for 15 years – “Oklahoma!” also generated a decade-long U.S.
