Ghost of Stephen Foster was an absolute favourite with me when I first got into the album which was about a couple of years or so after it's release. Today, the songs I like the most are the songs where Katharine Whalen sings (on Perennial Favorits, particularly Low Down Man, Evening at Lafitte's, My Drag). I love the sound of her Billie Holidayesque voice!

Interestingly, Low Down Man which I rate so highly was a song I would skip when I was a teenager



It's no longer swing jazz, though!
