	Sarah Vaughan - Verve Records
		Sarah made music from a very early age, first singing in her church choir, then studying piano, then playing organ in church, then singing around town with Jabbo Smith, a great trumpeter and singer.
		As Vaughan grew older, her voice deepened, and she became ever more steeped in her own mannerisms — to the annoyance of some pundits but the delight of most of her fans.
		The most amazing thing about Vaughan’s almost fifty-year career, which ended with her death from cancer in 1990, was that she was all these things at once: jazz and pop, divine and sassy.

		Vaughan is hauntingly romantic and Brown is at his most lyrical on "September Song." She shows her unbelievable bop-influenced creativity on "You're Not the Kind"; Brown's hard-swinging solo and Quinichette's Lester Young-styled softness set up an incredible ending cascade from Vaughan.
		Sarah Vaughan's self-titled album featuring Clifford Brown has always been a landmark of her recording career; her warm, lush voice was in absolute top form and the musical backing was nothing short of stellar.
		This 2003 release of Vaughan's December, 1954, album (previously released in 1991 as "Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown") is one of her most brilliant collaborations and a fine memorial to the work of Brown, who died eighteen months after recording this, at age twenty-six.
