Billy Eckstine discovered Sarah when he was in Earl Hines Orchestra. Later, Billy formed his own band in 1944 and he brought her in his band as an exclusive singer. There is a song titled ”Passing Strangers” which almost Japanese singers don't sing. Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan recorded this song by duet in Mercury EP record in 1957. This song was wrote by Mel Mitchell/ Rita Mann. Mel Mitchel is known as the writer of English words of Mexican Bolero "Sabo A Mi". Listen this song in You Tube below; |

Gina is Billy's daughter and she has grown up as a Jazz singer. Gina is favored by Mills family. The photo below was taken in August 2010. I saw Donald Jr. at first time and I was so so so surprised. I thought Donald came back!
Gina and Elmer Hopper sang ”Passing Strangers” in that show. Just on yesterday, Elmer noticed me posting next video crip.（Apr. 19, 2011） |
