Sassy PB Paperback - 1994
by Leslie Gourse
Sarah Vaughan possessed the most spectacular voice in jazz history. But life offstage was never smooth for Vaughan, as her voluptuous voice was matched by her appetite for excess. The acclaimed biographer of Nat King Cole, Leslie Gourse, celebrates Vaughan's vital musical legacy and offers a detailed portrait of the woman as as only her closest friends and associates knew her.
First line
Sometimes the regular organist at the First Mount Zion Baptist Church in the Ironbound, or Down Neck, section of Newark, New Jersey, wasn't able to play for Sunday church services, so Sarah Lois Vaughan took over the job.
From the rear cover
Sarah Vaughan possessed the most spectacular voice in jazz history. In 'Sassy', Leslie Gourse, the acclaimed biographer of Nat King Cole and Joe Williams, defines and celebrates Vaughan's vital musical legacy and offers a detailed portrait of the woman as well as the singer. Revealed here is 'The Divine One' as only her closest friends and musical associates knew her.
