White Lightning Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 2 truly Jazz giants: Ben Webster - 94th birthday Sarah Vaughan - her 79th birthday Ben is one of the first that turned me into Jazz. Has there ever was a better Jazz Balladeer? And his rasp voice while playing with brute force those fast tempo tunes... I LOVE the guy! Sarah is incredible. Especially her 50th and early 60th stuff. Needless to say, the session with Clifford Brown - priceless. Those two encapsulate what a romantic Jazz is. So happy birthday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
