Sarah Vaughan with the Jimmy Rowles Quintet

Sarah Vaughan and the Jimmy Rowles Quintet is a 1974 live album by Sarah Vaughan, accompanied by pianist Jimmy Rowles and his quintet.

The song "Morning Star" was mistakenly attributed in the liner notes of the album to W. C. Handy, but was actually written by Rowles and lyricist Johnny Mercer.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Ken Dryden stated that Rowles proves himself to be "a consummate accompanist," and Vaughan is "in her usual outstanding form."
