Sarah Vaughan “Summertime” (1976)

[@issakelly8071]

This is why she was the greatest

[@martynlewis9378]

I have heard this song performed literally hundreds of times by many many artists! I have NEVER heard it sung like this! At 77 years of age I have been and still am a hugely devoted fan of Sarah Vaughan! I was blessed to be able to see her one time in a sold out concert at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, Just a few months before she left us. She will overspell over that audience that none of us will ever forget. Now hearing this, I found myself at the end of it with tears rolling down my face at this year magnificence of this gift being given to me once again by the incomparable, The Divine Miss Sarah Vaughan!

Her accompanists are lucky they have a job with Sarah coz with a voice like that she doesn't need any. Her voice alone could fill the entire auditorium.

[@martynlewis9378]

Your comment is so true! This is my first time ever hearing Sarah without a compliment! I was literally in tears at the end of it

Glorious singing! Gorgeous voice! Summer, indeed. I've never seen her sweat as much as she is sweating here. I"m sure that wig wasn't helping but man, SHE SANG!!!!!

[@sassysblues1736]

She mentioned several times throughout this concert of it being very hot!

[@don1carter]

​@@sassysblues1736 Could you upload it to KZbin pretty please? ❤

[@Arron413]

Sarah uses a lot of energy when she sings. As a result, she sweats.

[@Andy-mo4yv]

To be fair it’s also hot as b**** under the spotlights

[@iainwoods9067]

It was also montreux in summer and she says at the beginning of the concert ‘this is the hottest stage I’ve ever been on in my life’

[@JaySmith-mz7vg]

Sing sassy

[@nbuehster]

One of these mornings You're goin' to rise up singing Then you'll spread your wings And you'll take the sky But till that morning There's a nothin' can harm you With daddy and mammy standin' by Sorry, but all I can think is that that's another way of saying "You're eventually going to die. But don't worry about that now.". Hopefully someone told the baby that daddy and mammy are going to take the sky first. Although, since this was 1949, I'm pretty sure all three (at least daddy and mammy) are pretty close to taking the sky, if they haven't already.
