Our Take

NINA SIMONE - Nina's Back

In the grand tradition of resurrection and reinvention, the legendary Nina Simone has returned, and she's not here to play. Well, actually, she is here to play - her piano, her heart, and our emotions like a virtuoso maestro.

With Nina's Back, the beloved songstress proves once again that time is just a social construct, and true talent is eternal. From the opening track, "Feelin' Good" you can tell that this is not just any comeback album - this is a statement of power, resilience, and musical prowess.

Simone effortlessly traverses genres and emotions, from the soulful anthem "Four Women" to the defiant "To Be Young, Gifted, and Black." Her voice, always a force to be reckoned with, soars to new heights and burrows into the depths of our souls with each note she sings.

The production on Nina's Back is lush, layered, and expertly crafted, showcasing Simone's timeless talent while adding a contemporary flair that feels fresh and exciting. The instrumentation, from the haunting strings to the funky bass lines, perfectly complements Simone's vocals, elevating each track to a sonic journey worth taking again and again.

In a world full of imitators and pretenders, Nina Simone shows us once again why she is truly one of a kind. Nina's Back is not just an album - it's a proclamation. Welcome back, Nina. We've missed you more than words can say.

Nina Simone, a force of nature in the world of music, was a dazzling combination of raw talent and unapologetic rebellion. Born Eunice Kathleen Waymon in 1933, this American singer-songwriter transcended genres with her powerful vocals, soulful piano playing, and unwavering commitment to social justice. Known for her unique blend of jazz, blues, folk, and classical music, Nina Simone captivated audiences with hits like "Feeling Good," "Sinnerman," and "I Put a Spell on You." Her music was a reflection of the turbulent times in which she lived, capturing the anger and defiance of the civil rights movement in the 1960s. But Nina Simone was more than just a musician—she was a force for change. With her captivating presence and fearless activism, she used her platform to speak out against racism, sexism, and inequality. Whether she was performing at the Montreux Jazz Festival or marching alongside Martin Luther King Jr., Nina Simone never shied away from using her voice to inspire change. Despite her tumultuous personal life and battles with mental health, Nina Simone remained a resilient and revolutionary figure in the music world. Her legacy lives on through her timeless music and unwavering spirit, reminding us all to stay true to ourselves and fight for what we believe in. So, to all the soul-searching, heart-wrenching, and politically-charged music lovers out there, Nina Simone is the voice you need to hear. Let her powerful lyrics and soul-stirring melodies transport you to a place where music is not just entertainment, but a call to action. Nina Simone may no longer be with us, but her music lives on, a testament to the enduring power of art to change the world.
