"Live from Rosy's...The Divine One, Sarah Vaughan!" So begins Resonance Records and NPR Music's new release, Live at Rosy's.

Live at Rosy's is the first commercial release of Vaughan's May 31, 1978 performances at the New Orleans nightspot, recorded for NPR's Jazz Alive program and presented here as remastered from the original eight multitrack reels.

UPDATED: Bobby Darin's "Another Song On My Mind: The Motown Years" Coming In May For His 80th!
Look out, old Bobby is back! On May 14, 2016, Bobby Darin would have turned 80 years old.

In Memoriam: George Martin (1926-2016)

In Arlen's sophisticated yet blues-based melodies, Garland found the perfect expressions in which to bare her soul, alternately with vulnerability, tenderness, desperation and joy.
