Nina Simone your dad is Rich and your mama good looking call me now❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. A. 10 sing a song Nina Simone you going to turn me into a cotton chopper
That "White Noise" people are complaining about isn't white noise. It's the snare drums played with wire brushes. Very, very common in jazz and blues. In this case, I think it was supposed to sound like the leaves rustling. This is done in every performance of this song she has recorded. It is supposed to sound that way. If anything, the quality of the recording is slightly muted, and I'm betting it's because of the acoustics of the room the live recording was made in. You will notice this is a lot of older live recordings. If I'm correct, this is from At Town Hall (1959), recorded live at The Town Hall (123W 43rd St. NYC) which is still in use, but is the old fashioned half-bowl shaped auditorium style venue. Put the bowl together with 1950s tech, and it's not too hard to figure out where sound issues come from-the ones that are real issues.
RinnsKitchen agreed. (about the white noise). most people are probably listening on laptop speakers or a cell phone, or crappy computer speakers. it's hard to tell what's really going on without decent speakers. This recording is amazing though... im glad i happened upon it
Very nice ticklin of the ivories! And the beat is just right. Nina was a highly talented pianist, but she barely ever needed to actually look at the keys while she was singing. Her hands are magic. Her soul is out of this world. And her singing has no imitators. Just precious, spine tingling, power.
The glorious and great Nina Simone...She finds so much to say in this classic tune and says it with such subtlety and conviction, that mid-way I found myself suddenly in tears...
belleza, ese piano, y la voz tan especial de Nina Simone, ese sentimiento, esa combinación armónica de instrumentos y voz , esto es parte de la felicidad
I compliment Nina, of course! You also for your choice of images. I think Nina adds something that dare I say, The Iconic Lady Day missed- and it's near impossible to fault Billie. Wish I could get into that time machine and go back and see Billie and Nina in a small cafe- drinking, next to me is Leonard Cohen...

Nina has been my inspiration since I was age 17 I'm almost 67. She has been and still is to me the greatest on all levels. May she rest in peace.

I've heard more versions of this song than I can count and this is one of the most unique and soulful. Love Nina.
The emotional intensity of Nina Simone's music is beyond comparison. This rendition is so raw and honest.
I agree!

Beautiful comment.
The genius of Gershwin with the genius of Nina. Great bass.

Untouchable! Nina does it with Finesse and Fire🔥 Sangs it like those times we will always remember.
This is not only jazz. Far of it. This is perfect soul.😮❤❤
That voice, makes my heart happy ! Bravo
Excellent band and an outstanding voice👏🏼👏🏼
This was a formidable period in the era of Jazz...Great improvisations!
Merci pour ces belles photos de Nina Simone 🇨🇵😉
her music is just timeless👌
So great to find this again and that it has been remastered. My favourite Nina song and favourite version. Thank you!
She is just AWESOME!
The most underrated singer of the twentieth century right there with Ella and Judy as the greatest
Every jazzsinger needs a version of Summertime :)
Very beautiful rendition..but she was a MASTER at her craft..love her :)
She smoked this song intro before she even said one word love that piano sound classy.
take a listen to 19yo slovakian patricia janeckova's terrific version of this classic on you tube.
She makes the piano talk! The Lady is too tough..way ahead of her time.. I am still happy to hear it.
2024 and this is how far I’ve come…. Still in Nina’s trance….. and I don’t want it to end
whenever i listen her music i just feel good.....simple...
Me too🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Bravo, Nina. Bravo, ar spune Gershwin. Finete totala.
Amazing as when I first heard her via my mum aged 7/8 now 40 still gives me chills
a great jazz recomposition of Summertime-- Nina Simone's piano and singing is sensational very emotional
