Our Take

Eartha Kitt - The Essential Recordings In the dazzling world of cabaret, there have been few stars as captivating as Eartha Kitt. Her sultry voice and magnetic stage presence have left audiences spellbound for decades. Now, in "The Essential Recordings," we are given a glimpse into the musical journey of this enigmatic diva. From the jazzy opening notes of "C'est Si Bon," Kitt's iconic purr weaves its way through each track, leaving a trail of smouldering embers in its wake. Her rendition of "Santa Baby" oozes with seductive charm, while the haunting "I Want to Be Evil" showcases her range as a performer. But it's not just Kitt's vocals that shine on this album. The production quality is top-notch, with each instrument perfectly complementing her powerful voice. The brass section in particular adds a touch of class to songs like "Let's Do It" and "Uska Dara." However, not every track hits the mark. Some of the slower ballads can feel a bit repetitive, and the dated production values may not appeal to modern ears. But overall, "The Essential Recordings" is a must-have for any music lover looking to delve into the world of Eartha Kitt. So grab yourself a martini, dim the lights, and let this timeless record sweep you off your feet. You won't be disappointed.
