July 24, 2008 Sarah Vaughan Is Just What I Needed..

.. tonight! Love muffins sometimes we all need a little Sarah Vaughan in our lives and for me tonight I really needed a special dose. As soon as I turned her on, she put me instantly at ease and my soul was at peace. Here’s the jazz legend singing one of my favorite songs of all-time,”Send In The Clowns”, with the Count Basie Orchestra, Carnegie Hall (1981). Love muffins get into this!

  • Love me some Sassy! Great choice of video B.

  • Oh yes! You can’t go wrong with old school jazz divas!

  • Can we say, TALENT? This is a true diva.

  • This video never gets old. She built this song up to the end and tears will flow if you have a soul. By the end of the song you want those clowns to come in and cheer you up.

  • Sarah Vaughan is, in my opinion, the greatest vocalist of all time. Her range and musicality was incredible. She was never off key and could scat like a horn player…funniest thing is that you’d would think she’d be really focus on stage, but apparently her mind was elsewhere, thinking things like “What should I cook for supper” while singing ” Misty” or some other serious ballad!
    Thanks Bscott for putting that video up!
