Jo Stafford. Helen Forrest didn't sing with TD. Stafford was one of  
the Pied Pipers at the time.

Jack Leonard and the band. This was about 14 months before The Pied  
Pipers joined TD.

Correct.

Jack Leonard. No mention of other vocalists, but if a group is  
present it would be orchestra members (Leonard and two others made up  
"The Three Esquires"). This was three years before Sinatra and The  
Pied Pipers joined TD.

Doesn't RCA Camden CAS-800(e) have the proper vocalist  
identification? If not on the jacket, surely on the labels...in mice- 
type, of course...

Take care,


Joe
