Sarah Vaughan

5 STARS DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE

INCLUDES 1 BONUS TRACK

This LP contains the complete original album Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown (EmArcy MG36004). It was originally issued only under the singer’s name. However, the trumpeter’s tragic death in 1956, and the fact that this was his only recorded collaboration with Vaughan, led to both of their names being featured on the covers of later re-editions.
