I've got a lot of Nina Simone, and I fell in love with her music the very first time I heard it. She's so individualistic, that I never compared her to any other vocalist. Here are some of my favorites; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynnb6ejdEz0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfQNdwgvJMw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLqr_T04oMU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=139fXzrRjyc |
Nina Simone: All four, absolutely brilliant!!!! And all this time I thought Oscar Brown Jr owned "rags and Old Iron",. She took it to a new level. The 'Work Song' was almost like a lecture. Blackbird, with that bird flying was just awesome. Poignant. Her backing players are often times sparse, but always brilliant. Esp on rags and old iron. African Mailman was her just playing jazz piano. Great! Great Clips Cheers |
