The Pastel Blues Nina Simone LP is a timeless jazz record that showcases the incredible talent of Nina Simone. This album features the poignant track “Be My Husband,” originally penned by her husband and manager, Andrew Stroud. Simone’s a cappella rendition, accompanied only by her handclapping and hi-hat, highlights her unparalleled vocal prowess. The song later became known as “Be Your Husband” and was famously covered by Jeff Buckley.
In addition to original songs, this album includes stunning covers of Billie Holiday classics like “Tell Me More and More and Then Some” and the haunting “Strange Fruit.” As a versatile artist, Nina Simone blended various genres including jazz, blues, and classical music, making her one of the most influential musicians of her time.
