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".

Complete RCA Albums Collection 9 CD
Her concert debut, a classical recital, was given when she was 12. An upcoming talent. Her parents, who had taken seats in the front row, were forced to move to the back of the hall to make way for white people. An emerging civil rights activist was formed. In 1958 she recorded her first studio album for Bethlehem Records, followed by Colpix and Philips and in 1967 RCA Victor. 'Nuff Said! spawned the hit-singles "Ain't Got No - I Got Life" and the Bee Gees cover "To Love Somebody". After "Mississippi Goddam", from the same album, a civil rights message was the norm in Simone's recordings and became part of her concerts. In 1969 Simone recorded "To Be Young, Gifted And Black". Renditions of the song have been recorded by Aretha Franklin and Donny Hathaway.
