Description
|
|
|
|
Sarah Vaughan (1924–1990) was blessed with a singularly remarkable vocal instrument, a four-octave contralto capable of shaking down the stars or plumbing oceanic depths. From 1977 to 1982, Vaughan recorded for Pablo Records, and her work for that label, a cross section of which is presented here, is some of the finest of her career. Most of these 11 love songs (e.g., "Prelude to a Kiss," "In a Sentimental Mood," "My Old Flame," "Day Dream") are vintage entries from the Great American Songbook. One exception is "Like a Lover," a captivating Brazilian import whose co-composer, Dori Caymmi, joins Vaughan on voice and guitar. Whether backed by full orchestra, all-star small groups, or a complement of Brazil's best, Sarah Vaughan sings not solely for lovers but for lovers of singing at an apex of artistry.
