Tribute to Sarah Vaughn


Category: Music

I rarely hear anyone speak of the singer Dianne Reeves. Unfortunately it seems that this wonderful singer goes unnoticed by all except the most intense jazz lovers and is mentioned rarely on this forum (at least to my findings). Well since we regularly acknowledge Sarah Vaughn on this site and many others like it, I'm glad to say that Dianne Reeves has released a new album that pays tribute to Sarah Vaughn by singing some of her all time greats. Dianne has not disappointed at all with this release in my opinion should be considered a must have among those of us who cherish progressive, emotional, musical and technically astounding singer. My favorite is track#5 which is titled "If you could see me know" written by Dameron and Sigman. The name of the album is Dianne Reeves celebrating Sarah Vaughn - The calling. Give yourself a treat and check this album out. you won't regret it.

Subaruguru, my favorite "Sassy" recording both musically and sonically, is "Live From Japan". Swinging rhythm section and great sonics to boot. Now, I have it on LP not CD, but it would take a lot to destroy sonics this good. Famous last words, huh? You might want to take a chance, it's a great record. Second choice: An old (1955) mono on Mercury "In The Land Of HiFi". If you do take a chance, kindly let me know what you think as I might want CD transfer of these. Cheers.
