Slow Poke by Helen O' Connell on 1951 Capitol 78 rpm record.

What a great voice and wonderful version of "SLOW POKE"! Does anyone have a recording of

her beautiful rendition of the touchingly nostalgic romantic ballad, TIME WAS"? Here are some of the words: "TIME WAS, when we had fun on the school yard swings, when we exchanged graduation rings one lovely yesterday__TIME WAS, when we wrote love letters in the sand, or lingered over our coffee, and dreaming the time away__Picnics and hayrides and

midwinter sleigh rides, and never apart...

I don't have that particular song at the moment, but hope to find it! Thank you for listening to this vintage 78 record...Friends, Lloyd.

@joegleese I'm one of her granddaughters, and I have almost all of her recordings. I will search through them and see if I can send you a recording of time was.

Wow...That is very cool about you being here granddaughter, and your grandmother was a fantastic singer!! I would love to hear that song "Time Was", but I don't want to put you through the trouble of sending it, but if you want to, that is also great...Friends, Lloyd.
