Kitt,Eartha Wicked Eartha Kitt: I Want To Be Evil CD

UK collection. The precociously-talented Eartha Kitt spoke four languages fluently, could sing in seven or eight, and was one of the biggest international stars of her era. She enjoyed hit records, films, musicals and/or cabaret seasons in every decade of her 60+?year career. However, the body of work she recorded for RCA-Victor between 1953-57 is widely accepted as career-defining, and provides around 80% of the tracks on this compilation. Includes her breakthrough hits 'Uska Dara', 'C'Est Si Bon', 'I?Want To Be Evil', 'Santa Baby', 'Under The Bridges Of Paris', 'Somebody Bad Stole de Wedding Bell' and 'Lovin' Spree'. Also includes signature songs like 'Mink Shmink', 'The Heel', 'Just An Old-Fashioned Girl', 'I'd Rather Be Burned As A?Witch' and 'All I?Want Is All There Is And Then Some'. This is a genuinely indispensable compilation; many of Eartha's RCA?45s have never previously been reissued, and sides like 'Honolulu Rock-A Roll-A', 'Toujour Gai' and 'Yomme, Yomme' are impossible to find elsewhere on CD.
