Yeah, Nina is great. She wasn't as popular commmercially as some of the other black female singers of the 50's and 60's (Sarah Vaughan, Billie, Etta, Arethra, etc) because she was a bit of an activist in what she said and what she sung (Mississippi Goddam, for example). Mainstream whites of the time kinda stayed away.

I love the energy of her song "See Line Woman." It feels like a Big Chief Lambreaux from "Treme" song.

I had never thought of it that way, but you are correct.
Augie,
Everyone should have, at a minimum, Nina's "Compact Jazz" CD in their collection. Strangefruit, Girl from Joes, Feeling Good...all great tunes.

Even G Rap couldn't spit this perfectly in one take.

RIP Nick Ashford, prolific songwriter (with wife Valerie Simpson), accomplished singer in his own right...and a cat with one of the most distinctive hairdos that could be spotted within 2 blocks all over Manhattan...

Yep, heard it on the radio this morning. Didn't realize he'd hit 70. Thought he was a couple of years younger than Isaac Hayes.
