Detailed Description
Sugar In My Bowl: Best of 2-CDs
Recorded between 1967 and 1972. Nina Simone's five-year tenure at RCA found her deviating only slightly from the traditions established at her previous home, Philips Records. Simone never sold out, though: in one of the four previously unreleased tracks, Simone breaks off a version of Judy Collins' "My Father" after a single verse, calmly telling her producer that she's not going to sing the song because she feels no connection with the sentimental lyrics. This two-disc collection makes an effective argument that her RCA years were equal, if not superior, to her earlier work.
