This album features her most lasting Civil Rights Anthem, “Mississippi Goddam” in a more jocular form than she’d perform it later, but its words still hit harder than any speech could. Comprised of songs from three performances at Carnegie Hall in 1964, this album is notable for its obvious shift by Nina into Civil Rights Activism, as she became less concerned with appealing to people who liked “I Loves You, Porgy,” and more concerned with chronicling the reality of the movement happening in America.
In early 1964, Nina signed with Philips Records, who released this album as her first for them. You get a glimpse of the different direction Nina could have taken her music if she resolved to stay famous as just a jazz pianist this is the smoothest, most cocktail hour ready album in her discography. Her label, Bethlehem, rushed her into the studio to record this album-her purest jazz vocalist album-and convinced her to sign over the rights to all of the songs here for $3,000, which, after “Porgy” stayed big, and after “My Baby Just Cares for Me” became an enormous hit in the 1980’s thanks, ended up costing her millions of dollars in royalties. Nina’s debut album would be a sore spot for her in the early days of her singing career after some years on the club circuit after she failed to be accepted to a couple classical music programs, she got some fame as her arrangement of “I Loves You, Porgy” became a huge hit. So here are the 10 Best Nina Simone Albums to Own on Vinyl. We think Nina Simone Sings the Blues is the best Nina Simone album, but we don’t think the Nina part of your collection should stop there. She released close to 50 studio and live albums during her proper career, and the amount of compilations and unofficial albums from shady labels brings that number closer to 75.
