Superb Smoky Simone 5 Mar 2011
By Sentinel TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a superb double album: 39 tracks, a mixture of studio and live performances, and over 140 minute running time. The classics are here, including a particularly chilling version of 'Strange Fruit', the quirky bounce of 'My Baby Just Cares for Me', a wholly unusual live cover of the 'House of the Rising Sun' and 'You'll Never Walk Alone', the iconic and heartfelt 'I Put a Spell on You' and the downbeat 'After You've Gone', but there are no dud songs here, and some real discoveries lying in wait for you, including some solo piano pieces. A good production job overall, even on most of the live pieces, which crackle with a bluesy energy which powers her smoky, husky tones. Superb value at an attractive price, and a great introduction to this fine songstress.

Beautiful 12 Feb 2007
Format:Audio CD
Amazing album from an amazing singer.

Perfect relaxing music. Various live recordings add spice to this double disc set and prove how talented a singer Nina Simone really was. Both discs are worth putting on repeat.
