I remember hearing this when my family lived in Mississippi, on the Gulf Coast, in the early 50's - where the shrimp boats did indeed go out. It has always brought back good memories.

Well life has a habit of whittling away at you in one form or another but nothing more than that.Mom died in 1999 and Dad is 91 now and in good shape. I've had a few heartaches along the way but nothing that hasn't mellowed into a good memory.May you enjoy the same...

This is Sunday, Family Favourites on the wireless, Mom cooking sunday lunch, Dad sitting on the right hand side of the fireplace smoking a "Woody" with Sandy the dog lying at his feet.When I still had that wonderful feeling that nothing could go wrong.

A great video production! Her voice is magnetic!

We all miss and appreciate Jo so much. Indeed this is a later version than the original hit. I believe Jo had switched from Columbia to Capitol and they wanted her to re-record some of her hits. The good news is, as this song demonistrates, the new recordings were extremely good and were also recorded in hi-fidelity stereo.

Just heard about her death several days late and am saddened. This song (a different recording though I think) was originally off one of my favorite albums where she also sang duets with Frankie Laine. The album I believe was called "A Portrait of New Orleans."
