DESCRIPTION:
Your life will not be complete until you know these songs.
1) Smooth Operator by Sarah Vaughan. 1959 hit. I haven't heard this played once as an oldie since that time.
2) Early Every Morning by Dinah Washington. 1961 small hit. In the style of her duets with Brook Benton.
3) Bumble Bee by Lavern Baker. 1960 small hit, but big in New York. Too little heard, time to rectify that.
