Honoring Nina

[JHan]

Last week was the 14th anniversary of Nina Simone's death - she died 21st April, 2003.

When I close my eyes, and think of music for my soul, Nina is right there.

1. Dambala was more than haunting.

She was such a great singer.
Thanks for posting

2. It's a beautiful cover of Exuma's dambala :)

I greatly prefer Nina's version even though I love Exuma.

3. I've never heard of Exuma and must look him up

I agree, I loved that Nina version. I listened to it several times and put it on my play list. Thanks

4. Enjoy discovering him, as wikipedia notes, his music is hard to classify.

it's a mix of everything, no surprise given his caribbean roots.
