Paul Mason Howard

Songwriter Paul Mason Howard most often worked as part of a team, his most well-known and prolifically recorded ditty being "Shrimp Boats", co-written with Paul Weston (2). This appetizing song sizzled its way up the charts in 1951, recorded by Jo Stafford, among many others. He was also known to play the Dolceola, a musical instrument resembling a miniature piano, but which is actually a zither with a keyboard.
