AllMusic[1]

No Count Sarah is a studio album by the American jazz singer Sarah Vaughan released in August 1959.[2][3]

The title refers to the fact that Vaughan was accompanied by the Count Basie Orchestra, but without Count Basie. Reviewing the album for AllMusic, Scott Yanow gave it a four-and-a-half stars rating and called it "one of the best of all Sarah Vaughan recordings. Highly recommended".[1] It features "astounding vocalese"[4] from Vaughan on tracks including "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" and "No 'Count Blues".
