Check Our Catalog“A solid collection of Nina Simone’s recordings for RCA, covering the years 1966-1974.This is representative of a period in which Simone was riding the charts, and making an impact on audiences all over the world not only for her jazz and blues material — which included many originals as well as covers and spirituals — but also for her unique and even iconoclastic interpretations of then contemporary popular songs such as Leonard Cohen’s “Suzanne,” Jerry Jeff Walker’s “Mr. Bojangles,” Bob Dylan’s “Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues,” and the title tune, written by Chip Taylor.”–All Music Guide
