Music reviews of Simone on Simone

Music Review: Simone on Simone
Rating: 5 Stars

Not many young singers have the "chops" or courage to cover Nina Simone, one of the most original vocalists in history but her daughter, Lisa (aka Simone) has her own distinctly beautiful vocals and definitely did her mother proud!

This is an outstanding collection of some of Nina Simone's best singles and with backing from a terrific band, Lisa put a modern spin on them - most notably: BLACK IS THE COLOR OF MY TRUE LOVE'S HAIR. I love the arrangement of this track - it starts with her singing accapella then segues into a hip hop beat inspired updated rendition, a treat to listen to.

My other favorites are:

FEELING GOOD - this is one of my favorite Nina Simone tracks and I've never heard it sung (competently) by anyone else till now. Lisa sang it brilliantly by not trying to copy her mother's version.

MUSIC FOR LOVERS - a beautiful live duet with mother & daughter.

I HOLD NO GRUDGES - magnificent rendition

LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME - sassy track

KEEPER OF THE FLAME

DON'T YOU PAY THEM NO MIND - an exhuberant track

CHILD IN ME - the only original song penned by Lisa

HOW LONG MUST I WANDER - personal lyrics & a powerful presentation

I can't say enough about how enjoyable I find this collection of music. I'd definitely recommend it to fans of Nina Simone and also to those who are seeking beautiful arrangements sung by a vocalist who can SANG and made these songs her own.
