NINA SIMONE 'SINGS THE BLUES' (1967) CAN RIGHTFULLY BE CALLED A TRUE CLASSIC IN BOTH SOUL AND BLUES GENRES. THE ALBUM IS A SHOWCASE FOR THE INTENSITY OF NINA'S SOULFUL CROON AND DEMANDING PIANO SKILLS, ACCOMPANIED BY A MARVELLOUS BACKING BAND WITH ERIC GALE AND RUDY STEVENSON ON GUITAR, BOB BUSHNELL ON BASS, DRUMMER BERNARD 'PRETTY' PURDIE, ERNIE HAYES ON ORGAN AND BUDDY LUCAS ON BOTH HARMONICA AND SAX. WITH A SONG SELECTION THAT RANKS AMONG THE BEST BLUES TUNES EVER WRITTEN, THIS RECORD GOES BACK TO THE ESSENCE OF THE BLUES, RAW AND HONEST SPINE-SHIVERING MELODIES.
