Sunday Drive: Whispering Hope

An exquisite performance of the beloved hymn by Jo Stafford and Gordon MacRae, recorded in 1949:

Sunday Drive: I'll Be Seeing You

Jo Stafford, the beloved "G. I. Jo" of wartime fame, had one of the loveliest and purest voices of the past century - a great favorite of your Head Trucker's, with a song dear to his heart:




Note to my truckbuddies: Your Head Trucker is taking a sort of spring break from blogging. In the meantime, here's wishing you all sunshine, blue skies, and good cheer.

Sunday Drive: No Other Love

A song of transcendent beauty, the melody based upon Chopin's Étude Op. 10, No. 3. It was a hit in 1950 for one of the loveliest voices of all time, and a favorite of your Head Trucker's:   Miss Jo Stafford.
