"Everything on this is wonderful, she is in her island phase, it is worth it just for Obeah Woman."
This is the ONE...

"ONE, as in my 1st album review on Amazon. This is by far my favorite Nina Simone album. The fact that it's a LIVE performance only adds to its awesomeness. This is Nina's last album on the record label RCA (1974), and is exemplary of her, esp. later, works (undefinable, music genre wise) - she considered herself to be a "Black Classical"/"Folk" singer VS a Jazz singer (which many attempt to classify her under). "It Is Finished" covers Bahamian ("Obeah" -Exuma) to The Blues. Nina surely knew music. She will forever be Eclectic, Riveting & Timeless - and a Goddess in my eyes!"
