black is the colour of my true love's hair

Digipack CD

Live recordings from 1959 of some of her most classic material, recorded while Nina Simone was with the Colpix label, where she had full creative control over her music. Her unique voice and personal strength, both as an African American woman and artist cast a long shadow over the last half of the 20th century and provided inspiration for many artists who have followed in her footsteps. Now available on CD.
