who drummed on BROKEN HEARTED MELODY ?

Postby jean krupa » Sat Jul 19, 2014 5:43 am

In 1959, Sarah released her only commercial radio hit, BROKEN HEARTED MELODY.
It was obviously recorded to attract a commercial audience, hence the feel of the day (rock'n'roll).
Sarah rarely performed it afterwards, as she really did not like the tune and became one of the best Jazz Singers in history.

The drumming is very tight, and has a great back beat, as playing back beats through the whole song
was only a ten year old phenomenon then. (See Daniel Glass History of Rock Drumming).

Does anyone know who the drummer was that recorded the 1959 hit, Broken Hearted Melody
by Sarah Vaughn?
