The complete original Sarah Vaughan 2-LP set Sarah
Vaughan Sings George Gershwin (Mercury MGP-2-
101), which presents Sarah performing songs by the

versions of the same songs included on the album)
recorded by the singer for different labels during
that same period have been added here as a bonus.
Featured musicians include Miles Davis, Cannonball

among many others. Sarah Vaughan's recordings for the Mercury and EmArcy labels during the
1950s were handled by a number of different arrangers and conductors,
primarily Hugo Peretti and Hal Mooney (1911-1995).
