Black Gold (Nina Simone album) (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

Black Gold is a live album by American jazz musician Nina Simone recorded in 1969 at the Philharmonic Hall, New York City. She got a 1971 nomination for a Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, but lost to Aretha Franklin. The album is especially notable because it features the civil rights anthem song "To Be Young, Gifted and Black". The performance that night also included a calypso version of Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne" (which Simone had recorded on To Love Somebody), but there was no room for it on the album. With the release of the album also came an LP called Come Together with Nina Simone. It was a recorded interview about the album. The questions were provided in written form, so that radio DJs could ask the questions and play Simone's recorded answers, as if she were in the studio. (en)

Black Gold från 1970 är ett livealbum av Nina Simone. Det spelades in under en konsert i Philharmonic Hall, New York i oktober 1969. Sången To Be Young, Gifted and Black (med text av Weldon Irvine) skrev Simone till minne av sin bortgångna vän Lorraine Hansberry. Sången kom att bli en ”nationalsång” för Medborgarrättsrörelsen.Simone presenterar sången med orden: "It is not addressed to white people primarily. Though it doesn't put you down in any way...it simply ignores you. For my people need all the inspiration and love that they can get." (sv)
