"a spellbinding musical titan who straddled the world of jazz, pop and folk, is revered today with an almost religious ferver. An exhilarating set that throbs with vitality!"


and throb it does...pulsating garage basslines over classic tracks..and chill house beats fusing the past and the present. Remixed by dj Logic, Coldcut, Francois K and more!

I've dug most of the Verve Remixed stuff. And if it brings folks around to checking out the original jazz from these folks, then all the better. But to me screwing with Nina Simone is like screwing with, oh I don't know.....Duke Ellington, Django Reinhart, Charlie Parker or Dave Brubeck. Some things are better left alone.

It's great you like it. Check out her original stuff.

I will probably at some point listen to this though.
