Broadway, Blues, Ballads [Vinyl]

Vinyl LP pressing. In contrast to her first Philips album which was politically laden with civil rights motifs, Broadway-Blues-Ballads is more playful. This album features the original performance of favorite, "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood." Nina Simone was an American singer, songwriter, pianist, arranger, and civil rights activist who worked in a broad range of musical styles including classical, jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel, and pop. Simone's musical style fused gospel and pop with classical music, in particular Johann Sebastian Bach, and accompanied expressive, jazz-like singing in her contralto voice.  Tracks - Disc 1 -1 Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood2 Night Song3 The Laziest Gal in Town4 Something Wonderful5 Don't Take All Night6 Nobody- Disc 2 -1 I Am Blessed2 Of This I'm Sure3 See-Line Woman4 Our Love (Will See Us Through)5 How Can I?6 The Last Rose of Summer
