  • Description

    Nina Simone's 'Ballads & Blues' + bonus track pressed on limited edition 180g yellow coloured vinyl, comes with its own unique sticker.

    Description

    180g limited edition on high-definition premium vinyl for super fidelity. The great Nina Simone's style encompassed a broad range of musical genres including jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel, pop, and classical music. This collection compiles some of her best performances of jazz ballads and blues, the album's A side programmed to feature the ballads, and the B side for the blues.

    Among the many highlights are her classic readings of the ballads 'I Loves You Porgy', 'Little Girl Blue', and 'Black Is the Color of My True Love's Hair', as well as blues such as 'Trouble in Mind', Billie Holiday's 'Fine and Mellow', and 'Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out'.

    As a bonus, one of Simone's biggest hits, 'My Baby Just Cares for Me', has been added to this essential collection.
