A difficult dated story - I'd have picked Quadrophenia over this...good but not great
A strong double album; I think Abbatoir Blues is the stronger half

Not her greatest performance - elevated by Ray Ellis - I really would've thought Lady Sings the Blues would've been the Billie album

Wild Is the WindNina Simone
Rated 8/10
Disrupted by the live tracks (they are marvellous in their own right, but they take you so drastically out of the experience). It's not my favourite Nina, but it's still within her most powerful period
