Title: Nina's best!!!
Review: I have been a fan of Nina Simone for about 6 years now. I have listened to a TON of her music and I can say (i believe) with some objectivity that this is the best collection of her material that I have heard. All of Ms. Simone's albums have at least a couple of interesting tracks but this album is consistent from start to finish.Quite honestly, Nina Simone has a very unique voice that can range from beautiful to shrill often on the same album. She is definately best when her material is slow because when she stretches, it can be quite grating (hey - i'm a fan - just being honest).From the opening Black Is The Colour (of my true love's hair) with Nina holding onto her notes for dear life, there is not one misstep. Absolutely one of my top 10 favourite albums of all time - this one is a must - especially if you are a new and interested listener.
Is the review positive or negative?
