Eunice Kathleen Waymon (February 21, 1933 – April 21, 2003), known professionally as Nina Simone (/ˈniːnə sɪˈmoʊn/), was an American singer, songwriter, musician, arranger, and civil rights activist. Her music spanned a broad range of musical styles including classical, jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel, and pop. The sixth of eight children born to a poor family in Tryon, North Carolina, Simone initially aspired to be a concert pianist

NINA REVISITED: A Tribute. has been added to your Cart. I bought this particular album for Miss Lauryn Hill, but I love it because of Alice Smith. If this exposure fails to catapult Alice Smith into the listening sphere of every discerning listener, I fear for our society. There have been a couple of tribute albums to Nina Simone, a unique artist who over the years inspired many artists to cover her songs. This tribute produced by Jayson Jackson, Suzette Williams, Peter Edge, Robert Glasper and Lauryn Hill (who appears on 6 tracks) is to accompany Liz Garbus's documentary film "What Happened, Miss Simone?". Rather than the 'cod' jazz of previous tributes this is mainly in the contemporary R&B style and as such it has a pleasing unity and I think that Nina would have approved.

Nina Simone – born Eunice Kathleen Waymon – was a child prodigy, and a fund had been set up by people in her native Tryon, North Carolina to help her become the first female black concert pianist in the US. The surprise rejection left her rudderless and in need of money. After various legitimate jobs, Eunice adopted a stage name to ensure her Methodist minister mother wouldn’t find out she was playing the devil’s music in an Atlantic City bar (Nina was a pet name given to her by a boyfriend; Simone came from French actress Simone Signoret). The deal Simone agreed with Bethlehem Records was shortsighted. That lack of forethought would cost her a fortune, and it wouldn’t be the last time she demonstrated a lack of financial nous. After Simone realised her mistake and went to Colpix Records, Bethlehem put out a cobbled together second album – Nina Simone and Her Friends – but it wasn’t until 1987, when My Baby Just Cares for Me exploded in Europe, that it really hit her pocket.

Round Nina is a tribute to Nina Simone. Born Eunice Kathleen Waymon on February 21 st, 1933 in Tryon, North Carolina, Nina Simone led several lives, drifting wherever she triumphed or foundered in her dreams of becoming Clara Haskil, Katherine Dunham, or an American Miriam Makeba, perhaps. Maria Callas, too. While Nina lived, she never tasted the recognition that was offered to her models. Her violence (contained or not) was intimidating.

Simone’s brother, Samuel Waymon, who was on stage playing the organ, talks with Lynn Neary about that day and his reaction to the civil rights leader’s assassination. We learned that song that (same) day, says Waymon. We didn’t have a chance to have two or three days of rehearsal. But when you’re feeling compassion and outrage and wanting to express what you know the world is feeling, we did it because that’s what we felt  . Lauryn Hill has released 6 tracks as part of a recent Nina Simone tribute compilation album called ‘Nina Revisite. Tribute To Nina Simone’. The album includes songs from various other amazing artists including; Usher, Mary J. Blige, Common, Gregory Porter, and more. Definitely give it a listen.
