Sarah: Dedicated to You


Sarah: Dedicated to You is a 1991 studio album by Carmen McRae, with the Shirley Horn trio. The album was recorded in tribute to McRae's friend and fellow jazz singer Sarah Vaughan, and was McRae's last recording.

Reception

The AllMusic review by John Bush says

“McRae brings back the spirit of Sarah Vaughan while still sounding very much like herself. This very well-conceived tribute is a classic of its kind and a perfect swan song for Carmen McRae.”
