Album Notes & Community Reviews

A pairing of Simone's two RCA albums 'Nina Simone and Piano!' and 'Silk & Soul' from the late 1960s, reissued together by Camden. The piano album, recorded largely solo, is among the starkest documents of her art, while 'Silk & Soul' contains 'It Be's That Way Sometimes' and her reading of 'The Look of Love'.
