I have only come across Nina Simone's music in the last couple of years, but she is an amazing singer. Take a listen.

Love Nina Simone! She was very popular when I was growing up.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
I lived in the wrong place, because I had not heard of her until recently. Although she is not always referred to as blues performer, I missed out on her despite seeing many of the legends live in the early’ 1970′s.
Have always loved Nina. I used to sing some of her songs during my singing career. And I loved what she stood for.
I am just finding out about her music, but love it in the short time I have listened to her.
PS I did not know she was a civil-rights activist, but that elevates even more in my world. I learned something today.
I admire Nina as a musician, and saw her when she performed here in Israel. But are you aware of the extreme racist material in the blog that you took this post from?
No, I was not. I will go back and look. I do apologize. Thank you for making me aware.
