Description
The Newport Jazz Festival had always brought the best out of Nina Simone. On July 2, 1966 the audience was treated to the full range of her artistry – from the opener, a breathtaking version of “”You”ve Got To Learn”” to a swinging take on “”Mississippi Goddam.”” After the standing ovation, her fans were rewarded with the show-stopping encore, “”Music For Lovers.”” This previously unreleased recording makes it clear why hearing Nina Simone in concert was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
