"Song For Our Ancestors, Living In The U.s.a., Quicksilver Girl, Gangster Of Love are all solid songs for me. I love how all these unique sounds are on this record. The fog horn, the harmonica/organ, the mellow quicksilver girl, and motatin' Gangster of Love." Reply

"This has covers (i.e. C'est Si Bon, Let's Do it,Smoke Gets In Your Eyes etc) and originals. To me, Eartha Kitt's selling point was her voice, so the lack of original material doesn't bother me. I had a good time listening to the whole thing. "I Want to Be Evil" ended up being my favorite-" Reply
"It'd be hard to oversell this album as it is a genuine and unique jazz masterpiece." Reply

"I dig this, but I have yet to find this is a legit release on Discogs, Amazon, or RYM. Would be interested to find evidence of such. Otherwise my Spotify playlist from her Decca Singles works for me, and great indeed they are." Reply

"I'm a huge fan of their catalog and I think this ranks sommewhere in the middle above TT5B and Hello Nasty. Underrated in my opinion but at the same time only a few tracks stick out but none fall on their face either! Always a good listen." Reply
"Her most consistent and fully realised project to date. It's a grey-on-pink, Star Trek sci-fi meets Drag Race camp whirlwind, with a sound completely in love with the early 90s.
