• 4 étoiles, basé sur 1 votes

Given her extensive and varied recording catalog, if youre looking for a place to explore the talents of the late nina simone, then 1965s i put a spell on you is a great place to dip your toes - particular if you want to start with her more pop oriented sides.

as was the case with many mid-1960s releases, simones record label had a major say in the material she was allowed to record and it shows on this set which features a truly eclectic mixture including stabs at jazz (the instrumental blues on purpose), r&b (the title track), french chanson (ne me quitte pas) and a number of show tunes.
