Favorite Songs By Nina Simone

Question:

Sorry don’t agree. Much too complicated. First disc (mid 1950s) was unsurpassed. Singing ‘Mood Indigo’ as no one else ever has. Piano ‘Love Me or Leave Me’ perfect jazz lines with overtones of Bach.

I’m a conservative.  I don’t like to "stir things up".  I cried copious tears when Richard Nixon died.  But I’m still crying at the passing of the multi- talented, courageous, activist for human rights, lovely to look at, lovely to hear Nina Simone.  The world has lost (and, my belief, heaven has gained) a wonderful woman.
