Nina Simone – It Is Finished LP (Sunhat Yellow Colour Vinyl)

Nina Simone – It Is Finished

Filled with brilliant cover versions, as its title suggests Simone’s 1974 album marked the end of an era: her militant activism had largely concluded, it was her final album for RCA, and she bid farewell to the US as she moved to Barbados. A blend of live and studio performances, it is sought-after for her powerful rendition of Tina Turner’s ‘Funkier Than A Mosquito’s Tweeter’, as well as takes on ‘Mr Bojangles’, Steppenwolf’s ‘The Pusher’, and the 1930s blues classic ‘I Want a Little Sugar in My Bowl’. This special pressing is on Sunhat Yellow coloured vinyl (to match Nina’s hat on the sleeve).
