My note
I was listening to Nina Simone while I built this room, so the record belongs here for a simple reason. Feeling Good was also sitting on the Now page of my main site at the time.
The voice at the start of that track needs no introduction. When the brass arrives, the whole recording seems to get bigger around her. I know the song has been used everywhere. It still works on me.
