A quite unknown artist, Edith Peters was active between the 50s and 70s, singing as a member of the Peters Sisters, and as an actress; after marrying her Italian agent in 1958, she moved to Italy where she starred in several movies, TV series and ads. In 1973 Sante Palumbo wrote and arranged a couple of songs for her, perhaps with the aim of promoting her solo career. “This is the Moment was originally released as the B-side of “Lord Please Hear My Prayer,” a rare 45 published by Cipiti Records. On Cipiti she had already released her rendition of “Speak Softly, Love,” a theme from “The Godfaher” soundtrack, though her career was at that time orientated more toward her activity as an actress.The original 1973 version is featured here as a B-side while Gerardo Frisina signs the A-side of this reissue with a rework of the track, doubling the length and adding his signature rhythm patterns.
