@ninasimone: 60 years ago today — on July 24th, 1965 — #ninasimone performed at the Jazz à Juan International Jazz Festival in Juan-les-Pins, Antibes, France. Nina performed on the first two days of the festival that year; this was her first of the two concerts. (This entire concert is available to stream on our official @YouTube channel.) In this clip, Nina and her band (Lisle Atkinson on bass, Rudy Stevenson on flute, and Bobby Hamilton on drums) perform her latest tune, her rendition of the Screamin' Jay Hawkins song, "I Put A Spell On You," which was also the title track of her 1965 album. #iputaspellonyou To commemorate the 60th anniversary of "I Put A Spell On You," you can pre-order the Spellbound splatter vinyl from @Verve Records at the link in bio!

Whew! I forgot what a virtuoso she was on the piano. Her voice grabs your attention and then she does (waves frantically) THAT

That’s what I love about Jazz and Blues. It keeps its own time and tempo. Never what you expect but it hits you so hard every time.

I clearly need to listen to more Nina Simone, because I did NOT know she got that busy on the keys! I’m a little embarrassed, but I’m going to fix that issue! 🎹🔥🔥🔥

I didn’t realize what an incredible piano player Nina Simone was. I only knew her as a singer. Such a jazz genius

She wanted to be classic pianist, was driven to this instead due to lack of opportunities for people of color on classic musics
