Personal Personality

Nina Simone Bares Her Beautiful Soul


I first heard Nina way back in the middle '70s but Sunday arvi at Graeme's, stoned to the tips of the tree, gutsing down tequila as we often did (just for fun) "perhaps" does not generate the ideal mood required for listening to Nina (or listening to anybody, for that matter).

Listening to this 1985 concert (which, by default, wasn't available to listen to during the 1970s) for the first time just last night, I truly began to understand the depths of Nina. What an amazing individual and incredibly talented person. I adore her.
