This is the ONE...,
This review is from: It Is Finished (Audio CD)
ONE, as in my 1st album review on Amazon. This is by far my favorite Nina Simone album. The fact that it's a LIVE performance only adds to its awesomeness. This is Nina's last album on the record label RCA (1974), and is exemplary of her, esp. later, works (undefinable, music genre wise) - she considered herself to be a "Black Classical"/"Folk" singer VS a Jazz singer (which many attempt to classify her under). "It Is Finished" covers Bahamian ("Obeah" -Exuma) to The Blues. Nina surely knew music. She will forever be Eclectic, Riveting & Timeless - and a Goddess in my eyes!

If you're new to the works of Nina and looking to appreciate her artistry, you won't find a better album than "It Is Finished." This live work is the most stylized, soulful, funky, beautiful, wonderful- you name it.. album of hers. Stand outs are "Funkier Than A Mosquito's Tweeter", "I Want A Little Sugar In My Bowl", and "Obeah Woman."
Worth. Every. Penny. |
