Nina Simone-vocal, piano
Musicians certainly don?t have it easy with record
companies. First of all they must struggle to
even get a contract. Then, when their debut
release has proved a success, they are bandied
around from one arranger to another in all the
recording studios imaginable. But having been
?treated? with such sounds as a snappy combo,
meaty bigband, and smoochy string orchestra, there
at last comes an opportunity for some artists to
be themselves again.
This album wholly concentrates on Nina Simone and
demonstrates that she does not need help from
anyone else in order to bring her strikingly
expressive voice into the limelight. Accompanying
her in her songs about loneliness, identity
crises, and desires is her faithful friend, the
piano, which she masters equally as well as her
voice. The piano parts are far more than just
casual accompaniments. Varying from number to
number, they range from a classical, bluesy sound,
to late-Romantic fervour, right up to avantgarde
aggression. And yet all these pieces have
something in common: filled with bizarre beauty,
they portray a complex personality with all its
ups and downs.
