Compiled by Bob Stanley and Martin Green, It's A Scandal! harks back to the heady world of Soho clubland in the years immediateley before Swinging London, an environment evoked on record through risqué material sung by the likes of Diana Dors, Shirley Bassey and Elke Sommer. This was the milieu for many of the characters caught up in the Profumo Affair, satirised by the Miss X single and further exploited by Mandy Rice-Davies. Most of this material is hard to find on CD, and all will appeal to the aficionados of burlesque.
