No doubt both sides of Sarah Vaughan's Golden Hits LP lend ample proof as to why Vaughan has been long acclaimed as one of the pre-eminent vocalists of all-time, right alongside the likes of Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald, who once called Vaughan the world's greatest singing talent.Preorder here https//UMe.lnk.to/GoldenHits.Vaughan, who passed away at age 66 in 1990, was a three-octave contralto equally adept at singing traditional jazz, contemporary pop, and classically arranged material with much verve, panache, and personal swagger, earning her the nickname Sassy in the process. Witness her operatic mastery of Misty, the appreciative drive of Smooth Operator, and the catchy swing of Broken Hearted Melody, the latter of which remained a fixture in Vaughan's live repertoire for many years to come.

More recently, the sly ooh-ooh come-on appeal of Make Yourself Comfortable is featured in a prominent global Lincoln Continental ad campaign starring Serena Williams.Additionally, Vaughan's scintillating, scat-driven take on George Shearing and George David Weiss' Lullaby Of Birdland and her sensual, sultry pass at John Blackburn and Karl Suessdorf's Moonlight In Vermont set new standards for inventive vocal reimagining of such well-known jazz perennials.In the 1930s, Vaughan began developing her vocal and piano-playing chops in a local church choir in Newark, New Jersey. Following that, she would soon frequent jazz clubs in Newark and New York City, ultimately leading to her securing featured vocalist stints in the 1940s with big-band jazz impresarios Earl Hines and Billy Eckstine before embarking on a solo career. Vaughan was also a nine-time GRAMMY nominee, ultimately earning a Lifetime Achievement Award in 1989.
