Digitally remastered two-fer containing a pair of albums from the Tony Award winning actress and performer: Chita! (1962) and And Now I Sing! (1963). Presented in glorious stereo sound, these remastered recordings make their debut on CD. Both albums present an eclectic mix of showtunes and standards alongside more obscure material handpicked for the sessions. 'Chita!' was recorded in London in October 1961 when Rivera was wowing audiences in the West End production of 'Bye Bye Birdie'. The album features lavish orchestrations by renowned arranger Alyn Ainsworth while 'And Now I Sing!' is a more intimate collection, recorded in New York with Latin producer and arranger Joe Cain. These early 1960s albums clearly demonstrate that Chita Rivera is as versatile a performer in the recording studio as on the Broadway and London stage.
