The Wayfaring Stranger (Asch 345) is an album consisting of three 10-inch, 78 rpm records by Burl Ives released on Asch in 1944.

It should not be confused with Ives' 1944 album for Columbia Records (C-103) – also called The Wayfaring Stranger- and a re-release of a 1941 album on Okeh Records - containing different songs.

The Asch album includes the first releases of two signature songs by Ives: "Poor Wayfaring Stranger" and "The Blue Tail Fly.

All of the Stinson releases with the exception of the 78-rpm album had two bonus tracks: "The Fox" and "Brennan on the Moor."

In 1948 Burl Ives also released an autobiography with the same title.
