Nina Simone at Town Hall [Music] Douban
Nina Simone
release date 2005-03-01 publisher: Phantom Sound & Vision
Produced by Jack Gold and Bob Blake, the album found Nina working with bassist Jimmy Bond and drummer Albert Tootie Heath (brother of saxophonist Jimmy and bass player Percy), two musicians who had also been featured on her auspicious debut album for Bethlehem Records. A compelling showcase for an artist who had begun building a loyal, steadfast following, 'Nina Simone At Town Hall' has often been cited - with good reason - as a true classic within a legacy of recorded works that would ultimately span some thirty-five years.

The Ultimate Nina Simone [Music] Douban
Nina Simone
release date 1964-01-01 publisher: Polygram Records
她是上一个世纪成就最非凡的爵士女歌手之一，一位能够完美地运用音乐去讲述故事的歌者——妮娜西蒙（Nina Simon）。她以极大的歌唱天赋，为这个世界创造了包含灵魂释放，精神力量，激情以及爱的音乐篇章。

Nina Simone拥有宽广深厚，如天鹅绒般质感的独特歌声。她炉火纯青的演唱技巧、细腻流转的感性歌声及到位的情绪张力，也重新赋予每一首歌曲新的生命，丝丝入扣的紧拉住听者的耳朵，让听者从心底里发出真切的共鸣。

对于平时不怎么听爵士音乐的人来说，知道Nina Simone的可能性大概只有一个，就是从各路媒体对Norah Jones的介绍里。那类文章里会说Norah Jones的名曲《Turn me on》就翻唱自Nina Simone，说她继承了Nina Simone那种勇于将各路音乐形式融入爵士乐的气魄，说Norah Jones是Nina Simone的21世纪版。

其实在许多当代歌手例如Norah Jones、Diane Reeve、Diana Krall等人的音乐中，你依然可以找到Nina Simone的影子，她个人坚毅纯熟的歌唱永远是黑人歌手的典范。2003年4月21日，70岁高龄的Nina Simone在法国与世长辞，留下的录音作品数量众多，堪称一部宏伟的声音艺术纪录。

这张专辑是在其生前所发行的最后一张精选集，我相信如果手中有Nina Simon的朋友应该都是那张在其去世一年后发行的精选集吧~

不过这张更加具有收藏价值~因为所有的曲目都是由当代著名爵士女歌手Diane Reeve挑选的最爱~

Nina Simone Sings the Blues [Music] Douban
10.0 (8 ratings) Nina Simone genre: 布鲁斯
release date 2006-01-17 publisher: RCA
這張專輯是妮娜西蒙在1967年為RCA唱片所灌錄的，這是她在RCA發行的第一張專輯，當中她唱了蓋希文的歌劇《波吉與貝絲》中的「我的男人不在了」、以及她自己創作宣揚公民權和黑人平權的招牌歌曲〈Backlash Blues〉、還有以西蒙的偶像貝西史密斯招牌歌曲改寫成的〈I Want a Little Sugar in My Bowl〉、另外，原本西蒙在1962年錄過，但一直沒紅，被Animals合唱團翻唱才大紅，後來又被瓊拜雅翻唱，成為嬉皮運動招牌歌曲的〈The House of the Rising Sun〉也重新在這裡改以快節奏翻唱。這首歌原本就是民謠，鮑布狄倫在1961年也錄過。為了和她之前在別廠牌所錄的專輯風格有所區隔，西蒙這張專輯不再一人身兼鋼琴、歌手、作曲等職，而是找來專人與她合作，當中她除了演唱外，只負責鋼琴。
