Full liner notes with song by song descriptions and strikingly gorgeous art work!
They called her, "The Divine One" because when her dreamy vocal gifts are applied to a ballad one cannot help but think of heaven. They also called her Sassy, for she was playful, girlish if you will and certainly easy on the eyes. This is Miss Sarah Vaughan and this collection is pure Sarah. Listen as she effortlessly glides through the great American songbook with definitive versions of "In A Sentimental Mood," "Penthouse Serenade" and even proves that her 1946 take on "Everything I Have Is Yours" could give her friend Billy Eckstine's 1947 million selling hit a run for its money. This collection of 23 recordings from Sarah's best years serves as both a definitive introduction as well as a flawless romantic interlude. In the hands of Sassy, The Divine One, love never sounded so good. --Cleopatra Records
