Personnel includes: Sarah Vaughan (vocals); Teddy Edwards (tenor saxophone); Carmell Jones (trumpet); Ernie Freeman (organ); Milt Turner (drums).
Recorded at United Recorders, Los Angeles, California on June 6 & 12, 1963. Includes liner notes by Steve Voce.
Sarah Vaughan's final Roulette session before going back to Mercury was one of her best. Some of the tunes (such as "A Taste of Honey," "What Kind of Fool Am I" and "The Good Life") do not look all that promising, but Vaughan was near the peak of her powers during this era. Plus her renditions of "I Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry," "Sermonette," "Gravy Waltz," "Moanin'," "'Round Midnight" and "Midnight Sun" are classics. Assisted by a sextet arranged by Gerald Wilson and including organist Ernie Freeman, trumpeter Carmell Jones, and the tenor of Teddy Edwards, Vaughan is brilliant throughout this highly enjoyable LP. ~ Scott Yanow
