This is a unique 8 CD box set. Listening to this music in its entirety, you hear how the simplest tune could become the canvass for a singer's art. And understand why fellow musicians appreciated her talent. Vaughan could hit a note head on and hold it, pure and clean. Or, at her command, add a pretty vibrato. A wide range allowed her to soar in the upper register, and roar down below. All with a luxurious, rich, buttery roundness.
This set contains a huge number of jazz classics and popular standards that everyone will recognize - songs by Monk, Adderley, Ellington and Waller as well as Rodgers and Hart, Gershwin, Van Heusen and Arlen. Her arrangers included the finest the era had to offer - Jimmy Jones, Gerald Wilson, Quincy Jones, Lalo Schifrin, Benny Carter and Billy May among them.
