-
The
Newport
Jazz
Festival
had
always
brought
the
best
out
in
Nina
Simone.
When
she
took
to
that
famous
stage
on
July
2,
1966,
the
audience
was
treated
to
the
full
range
of
her
artistry—from
the
opener,
a
breathtaking
version
of
“You’ve
Got
To
Learn”
to
an
electrifying
performance
of
her
signature
protest
anthem
“Mississippi
Goddam”.
Unwilling
to
let
her
leave
the
stage,
and
after
sustained
applause,
her
fans
were
rewarded
with
the
show-stopping
encore,
“Music
For
Lovers”.
This
previously-unknown
and
unreleased
recording
showcasing
Nina’s
exceptional
performance
makes
it
clear
why
hearing
Nina
Simone
in
concert
was
a
once-in-a-lifetime
experience.
Liner
notes
are
by
Shana
L.
Redmond,
scholar
and
author.
