I first thought of SANTA BABY sung by Eartha Kitt.
Another great one is GOOD NIGHT SWEETHEART sung by Sarah Vaughn with Barney Kessel or Mundell Lowe (I can't remember which) and a bass player. Sarah put out two albums, one with Kessel and one with Lowe which had only guitar and bass. They're both worth hunting up.

I'm glad no-one's mentioned Barrie White.
