An Introduction to Sarah Vaughan

So, everyone here knows I'm kinda of a big fan of Sarah Vaughan's. biggrin Anywho, someone asked me the other day if they were just beginning to listen to her what would I recommend. I suggested the above. This is Vaughan at her best with her trio, you can hear that wonderous voice, how she glides over the notes, and hear her sublime tone. For me I always thought less was so much more...

Good call thumbs up!

1. East Of The Sun (and West Of The Moon)

2. Loverman (Oh, Where Can You Be?)
3. Mean To Me
4. Everything I Have Is Yours
5. The More I See You
6. Green Dolphin Street
7. But For Me
8. Day In Day Out
9. Misty
10. Careless
11. Stormy Weather
12. Tenderly
13. I'll Be Seeing You
14. Summertime
15. All Of Me
16. Just One Of Those Things

Any compilation that includes "Tenderly" is a good start, although I'd argue that "Ain't Misbehavin'" and "Black Coffee" should be within possession as a start too, the small group sessions she did in Columbia.

Was that the radio broadcast you mentioned in the organ thread? hmmm

Whenever I decided to put together a jazz collection, she and Billie will be the ones I will put together first. smile

Thanks for hooking use up on the soundtracks listings Harle... fogot that part. smile

Correction'

I ( live on the radio with Woody Herman - "On Green Dolphin Street") have it, I just forgot about it... called my bro' in a panic. lol Sarah Vaughan along with Count Basie Band appeared on the radio live, as a recruitment promotion by the US National Guard in the 60's. Other jazz & pop singers and muscians participated in these types of promotions.

Hence the title of the album - 'On The Radio: 1963 Live Guard Sessions'.

This Guard Session "On Green Dolphin Street" that had me on my floor. lol Let me say this .... An Intro to SV, mastering isn't the best. The "On Green Dolphin Street" on the Live Guard Session is as clear as a bell. You can clearly hear Woody Herman's clarinet and the chord changes by the piano player (Nat Pierce) when Vaughan held the note for the last 15 seconds of the song.

By the way both recording on the respective albums are one and the same, some recording engineer needs to be rapped on the knuckles for F'in it up.

Here it is.... music
