I Got It Bad, And That Ain't Good

Well. Nina Simone. Even when I'm not in the mood to listen to her music, when it's on, I couldn't imagine listening to anything else.
When will a horn section that isn't ska come back? Well. . . come to think of it, they're around.
Quit! Quitters Quit!

I love Nina Simone, although I haven't listened to her much. If you were to pick a particular song or album to get started with, what would you recommend?

enter her name in kazaa and download as much as possible. What comes through is a mish mash of everything that eventually becomes a random playlist profiling an artist over her career. However, "Nina Simone Live At Ronnie Scott's."

For a song I'd start with Feelin' Good or Here Comes the Sun.

Strange Fruit! You must download Strange Fruit.

And "Sinnerman."
