Trilogy
Nina Simone's inimitable delivery of even the most banal of lyrics put her in the highest company, but it was her ability to be inspired one night, abusive the next that kept her audience on their toes. This set recognises the inspiration of her live performance by adding 'Nina Simone At Town Hall' to her first two studio albums. There's much more to her long and varied career than these early albums alone can show, but they present a superb starting point.
