Album Notes & Community Reviews

'A Single Woman' stands as the final studio album recorded by the High Priestess of Soul. Enveloped in lush string arrangements, Simone's voice is remarkably weathered and poignant, delivering sentimental, melancholic interpretations of jazz standards and traditional pop songs with an acute sense of loneliness.
