It's a Man's World is an album by Sarah Vaughan released in 1967 on the Impulse! label. It was recorded in the same year and produced by Bob Thiele. The title references the James Brown song, though the album includes a variety of tracks with arrangements by Benny Carter.
The album features Vaughan performing songs traditionally associated with male vocalists, such as 'It's a Man's Man's Man's World' and 'The Shadow of Your Smile'. The production aimed to showcase her ability to reinterpret classics from a feminine and sophisticated perspective.
Despite high-quality orchestral arrangements, the album did not achieve major commercial impact. However, it is valued by critics as a demonstration of Vaughan's talent for adapting her style to different musical contexts while maintaining her personal touch.
