The title was heralding the newest technolgy, high fidelity, a sonic wonder that preceeded stereo, and Miss Vaughn was an early subject of this technoligical breakthrough. Recorded for Columbia spanning the years 1949 to 1952, this is a wonderful recording of Miss Vaughn's. Not recorded as an album, this a collection of recording sessions. That was the style of the day, Sinatra recorded specific albums with themes, but most of the other artists of that era just went into the studio and laid down tracks. There are 22 tracks on this re issue (original release date 55)(several of the takes are alternate versions) many of the tunes have Miles Davis as a session player and numerous other jazz notables. The majority of the selections are ballads and Sarah brings them all to life in her inimitable style. Sarah in Hi-Fi is a worthy addition to your musical library. Long Live Sarah. ---Marc Flanagan, amazon.com

 

Recorded between December 1949 and December 1952. Includes liner notes by Phil Schaap and Dick Katz. Digitally remastered by Matt Cavaluzzo and Debra Parkinson at Sony Music Studios, New York, New York.

Even though Sarah Vaughan recorded for Columbia between 1949 and 1952, only 2 LPs were culled from the many tracks she produced during this period: the strings-only AFTERHOURS and SARAH VAUGHAN IN HI-FI, a more jazz-oriented collection featuring a young Miles Davis and tenor player Budd Johnson among others. These are among Sarah's finest recordings - the stellar accompaniment reminiscent of the Teddy Wilson small groups backing Billie Holiday on her Columbia recordings of the 30s. Here the still youthful Sarah applies her technical mastery to jazz classics like "East Of The Sun," "Come Rain Or Come Shine" and "The Nearness Of You," complete with startlingly elastic phrasing and sheer loveliness of voice. ---cduniverse.com

 

Most of Sarah Vaughan's Columbia recordings were on the commercial side, but not the memorable selections on this wonderful CD reissue. She recorded eight selections in 1950 with an octet that included trumpeter Miles Davis, trombonist Benny Green, the remarkably cool clarinetist Tony Scott and tenorman Budd Johnson. This CD adds alternate takes to seven of the numbers, increasing the discography of both Sassy and Miles. This version of "Ain't Misbehavin'" is a true classic (with memorable eight-bar solos by each of the four horns); "Mean to Me" and "Nice Work If You Can Get It" are gems, and the other performances are not far behind. In addition, Vaughan sings two versions of "The Nearness of You" in 1949; there is also a previously unknown recording of "It's All In the Mind," and three orchestra numbers from 1951 and 1953 wrap up the outstanding reissue. Sassy has rarely sounded better. Highly recommended. --- Scott Yanow, Rovi
