I really like Nina Simone. Very classy and old scholl!

Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, See-Line Woman, I Put A Spell On You, Plain Gold Ring....I could go on for days. Classic soulful stuff.

Talking about about the "good ole days" -
NC stand up

Feeling Good and Sinnerman for me are both amazing songs. Got a lot of respect for Nina Simone's work.
-
Take Nina, mix in a little Marvin Gaye and you get Sade. She couldn't lose.
This and her version of Round Midnight are my favorites. Three Women is great too. Feelin' Good belongs to Freda Payne and Coltrane. -
Yea Nina was one of a kind.
-
Her rendition of Strange Fruit will forever haunt me.
-
I havent heard it till now
-
She was genius!
-
Lots of love for Nina, especially her songs "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" and "Feeling Good."

A great beautiful black talented artist, vocalist and musician, One of the all time great Jazz/soul/blues artist of all times, if you havent go cop High Priestess of Soul, or if you dont have the time to study her music go cop Nina Simone Anthology
