According to this page, the noun vamp has three meanings and is synomous with "seductive woman," implying that a seductress is a musical improvisation - since she obviously isn't a repetition or a shoe part. My goodness, learn something every day!

Chambers 1908 has this phrase, defined as "in pawn", i.e. held as security by a pawnbroker. Equinox ◑ 22:47, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
