Nina Simone, who sees the blues more as feeling than form, finds intersections between the sacred and the profane on Pastel Blues, her fourth Philips LP. Using a rich palette of moods and emotions, Simone covers a wide range of songs: Classics such as "Trouble in Mind" and "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out", a piano and vocal version of "Strange Fruit" and the redeeming "Sinnerman", presented as ascending, gospelized vocals
The third season presents two absolute Nina Simone classics. As exquisitely crafted as here were these but never before: mastered without digital intermediate steps from the original analog tapes, in 180g- Vinyl pressed by Quality Record Pressings and packed in sturdy tip-on-gatefold sleeves, printed and processed at Stoughton Printing Co. The entire production chain is overseen by the legendary Chad Kassem from the audiophile LP label Acoustic Sounds.
