One of Sarah's earliest - recorded just weeks after her first ever recording, done with Billy Ecstine's orchestra - and the flipside of "Interlude", which is a definite reccommended listen & can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOJpzPpkFEc

And yes, I think it's safe to say by now that, while instrumentals are my bag, I LOVE Sarah's early stuff. ;)

The personnel for this December 31, 1944 session are:

Sarah Vaughan - vocal
Dizzy Gillespie - trumpet AND piano(!)
Aaron Sachs - clarinet
Georgie Auld - tenor sax
Chuck Wayne - guitar
Jack Lesberg - bass
Morey Feld - drums

  • amazing channel! SwingMan show us some vids of yourself! I wanna see =P

  • @djbjam Thanks, dj!. :)

    Oh, they're there on the channel - I do an "intro/preview/thanks" video before every series of uploads. Some are better than others. ;)

  • Thank's for the memories...It's the first song with Sarah I heard on a sloppy LP transcription when I was a teenager in the 1980's. I was very fascinated and today I am fascinated again because your record sounds so much better!

  • Nothing beats a 1st pressing - even one that's been "well loved" like this one. ;)

    Coincidentally, this indeed was the first Sarah Vaughan record - 78 or otherwise - I ever snagged. ;) 1986 was the year and, though as a then 14 year old I had a vague notion of who Sarah was, I actually pounced on it due to Dizzy.

    Yep, this record inrtoduced me to Sarah as well - and I've been trying to snag her early recordings (before she went full pop) ever since. :)
