    Somebody has been posting Sarah Vaughn songs on Youtube. I’ve been waiting for the opportunity to mention this one. The youtube video seems to say she was in London when she sang it.

    Yes that’s beautiful. From the album “After Hours at the London House”, which according to this site –http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/6880567/a/After+Hours+At+The+London+House.htm – was an “intimate Chicago club”.
