American singer, actor, dancer, and civil rights activist Eartha Kitt was celebrated for her highly distinctive singing style

Her recordings of "C'est Si Bon" and the Christmas novelty song "Santa Baby"became instant classics and are presented here along with many other hits.Limited edition audiophile pressing on 180gram premium vinyl. 

Eartha Kitt epitomized the idea of the sex-kitten chanteuse, rising to fame with a nightclub act centred on her slinky stage presence and her throaty purr of a voice. As much as she enjoyed vamping it up, she also projected the image of an exotic international sophisticate. She brought a defnite zest to her torch songs and Orson Welles once called her "the most exciting woman in the world"
