"Black Coffee" is a song with music by Sonny Burke and words by Paul Francis Webster. The song was published in 1948. Sarah Vaughan charted with this song in 1949 on Columbia; arranged by Joe Lipman, it is considered one of the most notable versions. Peggy Lee recorded the song on May 4, 1953, and it was included on her first LP record Black Coffee. It was included in the soundtrack for the 1960 Columbia Pictures feature Let No Man Write My Epitaph.

Growing up as a trumpet player (I haven’t played at all since college) I always loved this song in band…and I was lucky enough to see this guy in person while he was alive. Oddly enough, at a high school in New Jersey.

The original (as far as I know at least) version on by is also tremendous.
