Tampico (song)
"Tampico" is a popular song, composed in 1945 by Allan Roberts, with lyrics by Doris Fisher.
It was produced in that year by Stan Kenton.
The song gave June Christy a top-10 hit in 1945, peaking at #3 on the Billboard charts.
Christy later commented to the "Jazz Journal International" that she had been disappointed that her first recording with Kenton was "Tampico," but was fortunate that it was a hit and established her right away.
The song takes a satirical look at the Mexican city of its title, suggesting that at the time, Tampico, Tamaulipas, had become more Americanized than the U.S. itself, and that many of the souvenirs which could be bought there had been manufactured in the United States.
You buy a beautiful shawl; a souvenir for Aunt Flo.
Authentic Mexican art – made in Idaho.
Other recordings of "Tampico" have been made by Benny Goodman, Doris Fisher and Edmundo Ros among others.
The song was also performed by Jo Stafford at The Chesterfield Supper Club and can be heard on the album "At the Supper Club Part III".

Jo Elizabeth Stafford (November 12, 1917July 16, 2008) was an American traditional pop music singer and occasional actress, whose career spanned five decades from the late 1930s to the early 1980s.
Admired for the purity of her voice, she originally underwent classical training to become an opera singer before following a career in popular music, and by 1955 had achieved more worldwide record sales than any other female artist.
Her 1952 song "You Belong to Me" topped the charts in the United States and United Kingdom, the record becoming the first by a female artist to reach number one on the UK Singles Chart.
Born in Coalinga, California, Stafford made her first musical appearance at age 12.
While still at high school, she joined her two older sisters to form a vocal trio named the Stafford Sisters, who found moderate success on radio and in film.
In 1938, while the sisters were part of the cast of Twentieth Century Fox's production of "Alexander's Ragtime Band", Stafford met the future members of the Pied Pipers and became the group's lead singer.
Bandleader Tommy Dorsey hired them in 1939 to perform back-up vocals for his orchestra.
In addition to her recordings with the Pied Pipers, Stafford featured in solo performances for Dorsey.
After leaving the group in 1944, she recorded a series of pop standards for Capitol Records and Columbia Records.
Many of her recordings were backed by the orchestra of Paul Weston.
She also performed duets with Gordon MacRae and Frankie Laine.
Her work with the United Service Organizations giving concerts for soldiers during World War II earned her the nickname "G.I. Jo".
Starting in 1945, Stafford was a regular host of the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) radio series "The Chesterfield Supper Club" and later appeared in television specialsincluding two series called "The Jo Stafford Show", in 1954 in the U.S. and in 1961 in
the U.K.
Stafford married twice, first in 1937 to musician John Huddleston (the couple divorced in 1943), then in 1952 to Paul Weston, with whom she had two children.
Weston and
she developed a comedy routine in which they assumed the identity of an incompetent lounge act named Jonathan and Darlene Edwards, parodying well-known songs.
The act proved popular at parties and among the wider public when the couple released an album as the Edwardses in 1957.
In 1961, the album "Jonathan and Darlene Edwards in Paris" won Stafford her only Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album, and was the first commercially successful parody album.
Stafford largely retired as a performer in the mid-1960s, but continued in the music business.
She had a brief resurgence in popularity in the late 1970s when she recorded a cover of the Bee Gees hit, "Stayin' Alive" as Darlene Edwards.
In the 1990s, she began re-releasing some of her material through Corinthian Records, a label founded by Weston.
She died in 2008 in Century City, Los Angeles, and is interred with Weston at Holy Cross Cemetery, Culver City.
Her work in radio, television, and music is recognized by three stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
