Sarah Vaughan - Sarah Vaughan #16

£395.00

"Sarah Vaughan" is a legendary 1955 jazz album featuring singer Sarah Vaughan and trumpeter Clifford Brown, released in Mono on the EmArcy label. It was the only collaboration between the two musicians. The album was Vaughan's own favorite among her works through 1980 and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999. Sarah Vaughan was overwhelmingly a critical success. Contemporary critics were enthusiastic, with Billboard opening, "Here are nine examples of Sarah Vaughan's vocal gifts. Her individual phrasing, her highly distinctive mannerisms are in the grooves. [...] For the dealer with any jazz trade at all, this package is virtually a must."

What exactly does it mean if a MASTERCUT EDITION is cut from a MONO tape? This means that the left and right channel of our high end cutting head engraves the identical (MONO) information into the lacquer blank. The full potential of your record can be enjoyed with your standard stereo turntable setup.
