Our Take

London Calling, music lovers! Today we're taking a trip back in time to the golden era of jazz and soul with the legendary Nina Simone and her iconic album "Wild Is The Wind". A true treasure from the archives, this record is a hypnotic blend of raw emotion and powerhouse vocals that will leave you spellbound from start to finish.

From the haunting title track to the soul-stirring "Four Women", Simone's voice is like a force of nature, commanding your attention with every note. Her ability to convey pain, passion, and defiance in equal measure is nothing short of awe-inspiring, and it's no wonder she's considered one of the greatest voices in music history.

But it's not just Simone's vocals that shine on this album - the arrangements are equally mesmerizing, with lush strings and jazzy melodies transporting you to another world. Each song is a journey in itself, weaving tales of love, loss, and redemption with a depth and complexity that is truly unparalleled.

So, if you're looking for a musical experience that will leave you breathless and wanting more, do yourself a favour and give "Wild Is The Wind" a spin. Nina Simone may have left us too soon, but her music lives on, a timeless reminder of the power of art to touch the soul and ignite the imagination. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.

Nina Simone

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.
