This is the epic Town Hall concert held by Nina Simone (with Jimmy Bond on bass and Albert "Tootie" Heath on drums) in New York on September 15th 1959 and originally released as her second album for Colpix Records. The repertoire included both traditional material and original songs written by Nina herself, plus some beautiful renditions of standards such as Gershwin's "Summertime" and Billie Holiday's "Fine and Mellow". Even though some of the songs featured in the concert were subsequently re-recorded in a studio for the album release.
