Few artists in music history are as unclassifiable as Nina Simone. During her long career she tackled material from a variety of styles, garnering an audience that included soul devotees, folk followers, R&B lovers and jazz buffs. Simone's classical training, smokey-alto vocals and modern jazz influence made her a novel and inspiring jazz singer and instrumentalist. The first disc in this colored 2LP-set presents a selection of Simone's finest studio recordings while the second features songs from some of the passionate live performances for which Simone was rightly famous.
