Nina Simone : The Amazing Nina Simone (Purple Vinyl)

Released in 1959, ‘The Amazing Nina Simone’ was Nina Simone’s first album for Colpix Records. In contrast to her debut album ‘Little Girl Blue’ (Bethlehem Records), which highlighted her piano playing as well as her singing, this production downplayed the piano in favour of string arrangements. The production also featured a variety of material, including jazz, gospel, and folk songs.
