Jo Stafford's album "It Was So Beautiful And You Were Mine Love Is A Masquerade" is an enchanting collection of love songs that take the listener on a journey through the highs and lows of romantic relationships. Her silky smooth voice and impeccable phrasing make each track a pleasure to listen to.

The album opens with the title track, "It Was So Beautiful And You Were Mine," a wistful ballad about a love that has passed. Stafford's voice is filled with longing as she sings about the memories that still linger. The album then moves on to more upbeat tracks like "Love Is A Masquerade," a playful song about the games people play in love.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Nearness Of You," a classic song that has been covered by many artists over the years. Stafford's version is particularly beautiful, with her voice soaring over a lush orchestral arrangement. Another highlight is "Make Love To Me," a sultry track that showcases Stafford's sensual side.
