Sarah gained so much technique wise and vocally as years went by, noticed by early 70's Troubadour dates voice so rich and amazing, a little darker from earlier years made 70's-80's truly The Divine One's greatest years and thankfully LA was a favorite spot for Sassy to perform, went too many times to count and nobody compared...miss those amazing times and will never see the likes of her again.

She's the master creator--at the service of truth and beauty. But she's at her best with the very best support--viz. Jimmy Jones or the Frank Collett, unheralded piano giants with whom Sarah effected a symbiotic relationship.
