Album Facts
Nina Simone - Forbidden Fruit Vinyl LP
Nina at Colpix: sly, swinging, completely in command.
- Nina Simone's 1961 Colpix session, back on wax from Destination Moon
- Trio settings that leave room for her piano and her phrasing
- Pressed on clear vinyl with the original cover art
Recorded for Colpix in 1961, Forbidden Fruit catches Nina Simone at her most playful and her most precise. Backed by a tight trio, she moves from the sly humor of "Rags and Old Iron" to the aching restraint of "I'll Look Around," bending standards into her own shape with piano work that never wastes a note. It is a jazz record made by someone who refused to be filed under jazz, and that tension is the whole pleasure. This 2024 reissue of the 1961 original arrives on clear vinyl from Destination Moon.
