The duet that ends this interview should be in the Library of Congress.
But honestly so should the entire appearance & interview. This must have aired on one of those school nights when, despite my best efforts, I was unsuccessful in sneaking back out into the family room to watch the Tonight Show when it aired several hours past my official bedtime.
A pity, because seeing & hearing this in real time & having it help shape one's musical taste & humanity at a young age (or any age for that matter) would easily have been worth a few hours of nodding off in class the next morning.
What a gift they were, the both of them.
Yes$
Man, our parents had good tv and music in their day!
The one and only Sarah Vaughan. Magnificent. The ultimate musician. Her range and phrasing are spectacular. She is sorely missed.
Could you imagine being that lucky to have been in the audience that night? Just Ms. Vaughn's lead in.

I have never ever had a blood transfusion, when I listen to Sarah Vaughan . It’s like I have been transfused with the most life affirming medicine known to man.
What a divine testimonial!!
Man, she was SO great! Beautiful too!!!!
I love how she changes the dynamics of her voice ! Wowww
You can tell that she feels alive when she is singing. You know she's just gonna gig all night. What a voice and what an ease she has with ASTOUNDING singing.
And to me I felt as the song progressed any stage anxiety melted away. I was fortunate to see her when I was very young and had just moved to NYC. She was at the Blue Note--I think one of her last performances but we didn't know that then. I don't remember much of her performance except I was a bit dazed when I left... My parents listened to her occasionally and when I as a teenager I thought she sounded old fashioned. Then when I moved to NYC a co-worker re-introduced me to her and other vocalists from the 40s, 50s, 60s and that was that...
I remember when this album was released. This was one of my favorites. But to me, Sarah Vaughn could do no wrong. I loved all her live performances. This is just one example of how great she was. I loved her then and I still love her now. The only constant in my life.
She never did any wrong
Indeed. Perfect pitch.❤❤❤
You are so right. To me she had the smoothest voice, along with Nat King Cole. I love the way they both sing Tenderly. Beautiful
Let the truer words be expressed. ❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have much of her library of music ❤❤❤
OMG! THAT'S a vocalist!
at 12:49 That improvised duet between Sarah and Sammy is PURE GOLD.
Air date: Monday, Oct. 2, 1978.
Ms. Vaughn and Mr. Davis both died of cancer within weeks of each other in the spring of 1990.
@kevinfitzmaurice4072 ...Sarah Lois Vaughan (March 27th, 1924-April 3rd, 1990): THE DIVINE ONE. Samuel George Davis, Jr. (December 8th, 1925-May 16th, 1990): MR. ENTERTAINMENT.
Truly amazing! Now the both singing duets in Heaven!! My Beloved Father is listening so tenderly … also in Heaven 💕 continue All to Rest In Peace❤️
@@brucescott4261, I remember it so well as my Great Aunt thought I was crazy crying over this woman I never came in contact with, yet I felt I had. I am so happy I still have her Albums. Even an album with Sarah, Billie, Lena and Dinah Washington on one album together. ❤❤❤❤
Can you imagine George Michael 🎤 and Sarah Vaughn 🤔
I got to see Sarah Vaughn live 4 times. The last time, less than a year before she died, in the Blue Note, the famous NYC jazz club with tables and chairs crammed in tightly. We sat at one of those tiny tables right up against the stage. The Devine One was just a few feet away. The acoustics were perfect. The quartet talented and supportive.. The material was as always pulled from her large catalogue of great jazz interpretations. Her voice was heaven.
The experience survives as everytime I listen to Sarah - and that is often - that experience returns, and she's singing just for me.
Wow!! That’s an experience to be jealous of!!!
One of the best instant duets for all time.
Bravo! Sarah and Sam.
They passed in 1990
( 2 great entertainment giants ! )
Never saw this one before. Thought I had exhausted all the videos posted but I was wrong. She brings so much to the songs she sings even when some of them were not hits. Love her version of Tenderly.
I thought so, also
She did not do a lot of interviews. This must be a favor to Sam.
The great thing about TH-cam is that there is ALWAYS someone adding something new. Thank you @Sammy Davis Video Vault
The divine one has been, since very early in my life, my absolute favorite female singer... of all times, not only for the extraordinary quality of both her voice and her musicality, but for the pleasure she sings with. She is the incarnation of joy !!!
Sarah truly one of a kind they don't call her the devine one for nothing
Oh. My. Goodness! Sammy knew Sarah’s voice was the one of the greatest ever and Sammy was super talented himself. Thanks for posting.
I think that it should be mentioned that sitting to Sarah's right is the great actor James Mason. I had no idea that he was so tall!
I'm sorry, I meant to include that. I didn't catch how the chair got wet in the first place.
Vaughn and Davis Jr...... my two favs!!!!
Nobody better
Uh….I wish I was alive to see her perform… What a groundbreaking, brilliant and sublimely talented icon.
Here is the glorious Sarah and Sammy. WOW. He's even a wonderful interviewer. There was literally NOTHING he could not excel at. ❤❤🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️
Iconic! Adore both of these national treasures! 🤩🤩
Oh, my God. This is just, just…..❤❤❤❤❤
The duet was exquisite! I am melting.
Like 🧈 butter
This is a historical gem 💎
The joy in my heart is immeasurable, heavenly. That album was my introduction to Sarah Vaughn. Live in Japan, another masterpiece.
Love this! Sammy and Sarah!! ❤ legends forever
Sammy had his issues and even his demons. But he ALWAYS appreciated and encouraged people with TALENT. God rest Sammy's soul.
I played this record over and over and over, back in the day!
RIP Sara. We miss you. And you, too Sammy Davis Jr.
Pure Heaven!!!
Her phrasing is so unique to her its absolutely brilliant one of a kind a musician's dream.
Literally...divine...loved forever❤❤
She and Ella were the greatest ever! They were as close to perfection as mortals can get.
The way this woman belts out a song so effortlessly is so amazing. She has the smoothest, sweetest voice.
Sammy was an awesome coversationalist
OMG! This was good and magical. Wow!
Mr. Davis did a great job filling in for the King. Thanks for sharing this wonderful piece of Late Night Television History.
What a blessed talent...I will always honor Sarah's memory 😂
What talent,never to be heard or seen again,how the music scene has changed for the worse

Sammy had a natural conversational style. He knew himself and he could blend in any situation.
Magic happened here. I saw this the night it aired. Thanks so much for posting.

Sammy and Sarah beyond perfection!
Bravo TH-cam! Bravo!
What a great way to start the weekend.
I love her! She was awesome! Obvious why he wouldn’t sing with her !
Just finding this spectacular gem in 2024
Sammy loved singing spontaneously- that's where the good stuff happens.
The amount of times I have viewed this might be considered a crime. ❤❤❤
Ok! Master class is over! What a talent, both of them!

How did she do that so effortlessly?
That album is unreal...beyond words
Pure divine talent. This is what it looks and sounds like, folks!

Grande mulher! Grande Diva! Maravilhosa! Inesquecível! Amarei pra sempre!❤❤❤

Her last name is spelled Vaughan not Vaughn.
@luminferous1960 ...Correct!!!
The best.
The great ❤One !!!
Carson sure was smart with a lot of the guest hosts he got so he could take some time off, he knew that he didn't have to feel threatened by someone like Sammy Davis because he had his own career and he also knew that the star value of someone like Sammy Davis filling in wouldn't at all jeopardize the quality of the show and you see this a lot with many of the guest hosts. Nobody but the other comics he used had any inkling of possibly taking over the show when Carson left😮
Great clip but please correct the spelling of her name. It's Sarah Vaughan. XOXO
Sarah Lois Vaughan (Newark, Nueva Jersey, 27 de marzo de 1924-Los Ángeles, 3 de abril de 1990), conocida como Sarah Vaughan y apodada Sassy y La Divina, fue una cantante estadounidense de jazz. Junto con Billie Holiday y Ella Fitzgerald, es considerada por muchos una de las más importantes e influyentes voces femeninas del género.
Wow
Trumpet solo?
What year?

@@sammydavisvideovault8302 Thank You! Wish Sarah and Sammy would have done a duet!
@@shuffle877 There is a 1987 version. The Muscular Dystropy Association has it on their TH-cam page, but I think I like this one better.
