E! Online, 1997
A good sampling of the various styles favored by this singer and pianist, despite the absence of her great song "My Baby Cares For Me." Compiled from RCA's vaults, these 16 tracks--jazz, pop, gospel--include seven that are previously unreleased, and several remixes. Simone is a woman of deep emotion, whether rendering Gershwin's "I Loves You Porgy" or her own angry "Mississippi Goddamn," and any set of hers is worth more than a casual spin.
