There was nothing "casual" about this performance tentgirl17. She knew exactly what she was doing, and she did it in a fantastic way...the fact that she is so relaxed that it looks like a rehearsal just tell us how in control she was.
Mari Nobre indeed! in fact, she's doing such a great job that it looks so casual. this is one of the greatest version i've been looking for since i remembered her style years ago by listening to a street recordin
Not long before she died of lung cancer. Less than two years. Her otherworldly mastery of vocal technique allowed her to sail thru performances until very near the end... but I can tell she was already not feel well by this performance.
Brilliant .Such amazing control of rhythm and phrasing ! .She is following Polyrhythmic branches away from the original pulse in a way that few people could manage !
Tentgirl17 I am a great fan of Ella and Sarah, however, the first time I heard Sarah sing - over 40 years ago - I knew I was listening to an extraordinary talent. Her style is unique and comparing the two legendary talents is futile. I am thankful of the talent that has passed because from each artist you hear a different rendition of a song - and not only one interpretation.
This the divine voice! Sarah Vaughan was an incredible musician, the consummate singer. I remember the album she did with another icon, Oscar Peterson, was just fantastic.RIP Sarah and Oscar. Looking forward to your turn to a better...RIGHT... world:-)
Everything vocal jazz should be is encapsulated in this performance. Wonderful. For me, the top three singers that do this tune justice are, Sarah; Ella; & Mel.
I was FORTUNATE enough to be at that Concert!
Oooh, where was it.

Wow, her phrasing & craft are totally fantastic! Age 64. She died 2 years after this.
The first time i heard this song was this rendition. Saw it on a VHS tape in Auckland. Thanks Reece.
Good evening mr. Dominic Miller! This would be a great song or sting the new ones next CD!
Love it
My Queen 👸🏾 Saaaaarah!
Fascinating
This sounds more like a rehearsal than an actual concert.
What a 'casual' attempt at a great song. For once she seems to be just relying on her fame.
Listen to Ella for a great rendition
😌

+tentgirl17 You're clearly not a professional singer.
Amateurs...
No need to detract from Sarah's version
