Nina Simone
Van alle grote zangers en zangeressen uit de late twintigste eeuw was Nina Simone een van de moeilijkste artiesten om onder te brengen in een bepaalde groep. Ze nam op grote schaal soul-, jazz- en popnummers op die vaak ook op hetzelfde album verschenen. Ze ging ook gemakkelijk om met blues, gospelmuziek en Broadway. Op vlak van de emotie die ze overbracht, is het waarschijnlijk correct om haar te beschouwen als een soulzangeres. Net zoals Aretha Franklin of Dusty Springfield was Simone een eclecticus die een zeker soulgehalte toevoegde aan al haar werk. Dat was een van haar sterkste kwaliteiten en het is waarschijnlijk ook de reden waarom ze nooit een bijzonder grote massa fans had.© Richie Unterberger /TiVo Read more
