I have never heard this version before! Love it, thanks for uploading it!
By the way, I'm wondering if the Eartha recording of Santa Baby I have on an MCA 1983 release tape cassette is actually the 1963 Kapp re-recording you mention? The tempo is sprightly rather than the hammocks pace you hear on the original, and best of all there is no back up "ba-boom-ba-boom" vocal (which I hate). I can't seem to find a digital version of that anywhere, unfortunately.
She's from North, South Carolina. Others from SC include Joe Frazier(RIP), James Brown(RIP), Brook Benton(RIP),Eskew Reeder(RIP), Luther Vandross(RIP). God bless them all. krxn11
One of the most beautiful, intelligent and talented women ever. She set lady bird johnson at a white house function re:the racist nature of the war the us waged vs the heroic Vietnamese and the disproportionate # of Blacks who were put in a position to be killed. Result her career was whiteballed/stalled for years. Fortunately, excellence triumphs and her career rebounded. People such as MLKJr and others agreed with Ms. Kitt and the Vietnamese won the war and M. Kitt won the acclaim. krxn11
OMG I just heard this on SIRIUS Holiday Tradtionals for the first time and was like huh? The original is 1 of my personal favs but this, OMG I have got to learn these words fast and do another rendtion of her/this ha
Hi Sandra,she recorded this the year after the original and it was a complete flop strangely enough,so I thought it was about time it was given some airtime on here !
Glad you enjoyed it,thanks for playlisting it,cheeers,,,Mick :-))
Hiya Maggan,yes,I've re-charged the batteries enough for a few more vids !
I'm pleased you liked this one from Eartha,she was certainly a unique singer,no-one else quite like her before or since.Many thanks for watching & for your kind comments,cheeers,,,Mick :-))
Hiya Val,I thought it was about time I did something on here,it's been a couple of weeks since my last post,so I thought a Christmas song would be a good way to come back ! lol
I'm pleased that you enjoyed this different version by Eartha of her classic song,it doesn't get played too often these days,hope it does now though !
Very many thanks Jim,this version,which she recorded a year after the original,was a complete flop and has been forgotten ever since,,,,until now ! lol
Thanks for watching and for your kind comments,I'm happy that you enjoyed the video & song,,cheeers,,Mick :))
Hello again Phil,I thought I'd carry on from where Rey left off,he's put several Christmas songs on lately ! lol...I've just put one on my other channel as well !
Very many thanks for all the Christmas stars Phil,I'm happy that you liked this alternate version by Eartha of her classic song,cheeers for now,catchya later,,,Mick :))
Great post! I remember the '63 Kapp Records version, in fact, I might still have it somewhere. You've found some lovely images of Eartha...I can almost hear her purring, lol! Yep, we're getting all Christmassy early this year. Only 58 days to go. All the stars and two thumbs up on this one.
Hiya Rey,many thanks for watching. Eartha was a one off,no-one else quite like her,she was a pussy cat ! I'm glad you enjoyed the video & song from her,many thanks for the stars & thumbs up,cheeers for now,,Mick :))
If you have the '63 version,I'd like to hear it,I don't have it myself !!
Hi Mick, Fantastic video & wonderful song , this is really great. Yes i later noticed there was a slight difference in the lyrics.But the song itself is just as delightful & so is your video . A truly wonderful post. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi there,thanks very much for your kind comments,I'm pleased that you enjoyed this sequel to the original record by Eartha,unfortunately it was a flop for her at the time (1954),but I thought it was well worth posting on here !
