Simone Nina
Nina Simone, född som Eunice Kathleen Waymon 21 februari 1933, död 21 april 2003, amerikansk sångerska, kompositör och pianist.
Nina Simone ville egentligen bli konsertpianist och studerade bland annat på den välkända musik- och teaterskolan Juilliard i New York, men blev istället känd som jazz- och bluesartist. Själv avskydde hon dessa kategoriseringar och tyckte att de oftast var ett uttryck för rasism. "Min musik är svart klassisk musik." Hennes egna stil fick sin början när hon av nödtvång tog arbete som barpianist och för att fylla en repertoar för långa arbetskvällar blandade hon sin bristande repertoar av populärmusik, med jazz, gospel och sitt klassiska kunnande. Resultatet blev ett av de mest säregna uttrycken inom jazzen. Hennes röst pendlade mellan obevekligt skarp och hård, till hjärtskärande och utelämnande. Hon var kontraalt och brydde sig inte alltid om att sjunga vackert, däremot var hon alltid uttrycksfull. Hennes pianospel var virtuost och aldrig slentrianmässigt och man kan också höra hennes klassiska skolning slå igenom i många av hennes tolkningar.

The real... 1967-73 3 CD
This 3CD set collects the very best studio recordings and live performances from Nina Simone's career at RCA between 1967 and 1972, which coincided with what was arguably her greatest period of artistic creativity. As these amazing tracks illustrate, she was equally at home recording in a vocal booth or singing live on stage. Whether singing simple love songs or incendiary civil rights anthems, the music is always unforgettable. Included in this set are the evergreens "Ain't Got No/I Got Life", "To Be Young, Gifted And Black", "Here Comes The Sun", "To Love Somebody" plus incredible live versions of "I Want A Little Sugar In My Bowl" and "Mississippi Goddam".

Pastel Blues Vinyl LP
Nina Simone was one of the best Blues singers of the 20th century. Only someone the likes of Billie Holiday and Bessie Smith had the power to lay a soul bare like she could, as her stripped-down "Be My Husband" shows. Naked like a field-holler, this song would later capture the imagination of Jeff Buckley and Antony Hegarty. <br/>Also on this record are classics such as "Nobody Knows When You're Down And Out", originally sung by Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday's signature song "Strange Fruit", as well as a Nina Simone favorite: "Sinnerman". There are few songs that capture the Spirit of religion, redemption and the fear of God as much as this ten-minute race of a song about a man trying to outrun the Devil. It's no wonder it was used in the key-scene of "The Thomas Crown Affair" and sampled by the likes of Kanye West, Talib Kweli and Felix da Housecat. <br/>Nina Simone never, ever disappoints. Re-released for the first time on vinyl since 1965, we hope we do Pastel Blues justice.
