| Summary |
The Newport Jazz Festival had always brought the best out of Nina Simone. On July 2, 1966, the audience was treated to the full range of her artistry-from the opener, a breathtaking version of You've Got To Learn to a swinging take on Mississippi Goddam. After a sustained standing ovation, her fans were rewarded with the show-stopping encore, Music For Lovers. This previously unreleased recording makes it clear why hearing Nina Simone in concert was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. |
