专辑简介
'Nuff Said! is an album by singer/pianist/songwriter Nina Simone (1933-2003). It was recorded (excluding tracks 1, 8, 11) at Westbury Music Fair, April 7, 1968, three days after the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King. The whole program that night was dedicated in his memory. The album received an Emmy nomination and featured one of Nina's biggest hits in Europe, "Ain't Got No-I Got Life".
[edit] Information about songs on this album
* "Backlash Blues", a Civil Rights song first recorded on Nina Simone Sings The Blues.
* "Gin House Blues", first recorded on Forbidden Fruit.
* "Why? (The King Of Love Is Dead)", written by Nina's bass player Gene Taylor after the news of Dr. King's death had reached him. It was performed here for the first time. The song was heavily cut from the longer original recording, which featured a lot of Simone's monologue.
* "Ain't Got No - I Got Life," a medley from the musical Hair (Rado, Ragni, MacDermot). It became a hit in Europe, reaching #2 on the British Charts and #1 on the Dutch charts [1]. Together with "In The Morning" it was a studio recording disguised as a live recording with added applause.
* "I Loves You Porgy" is a song from George Gershwin's Porgy & Bess (George & Ira Gershwin, DuBose Heyward).
* "Do What You Gotta Do", written by Jimmy Webb, was a bonus track studio recording.
