'Icon' is an overused word when it comes to describing singers and musicians, but when it comes to Nina Simone there are few artists that the word describes more accurately. The 'High Priestess Of Soul' is surely one of the most iconic singers of the 20th century, and one whose fame and acclaim stretches far beyond conventional black American music circles. Nina Simone has featured on Ace and Kent CDs before but this is the first time she's had one all to herself. "Let It All Out" is the first and only Nina Simone collection to draw repertoire from every label she recorded for between the late 1950s to the late 1970s. Not a traditional 'Best Of' or 'Greatest Hits' package (although the performances included here ARE among her very best, and do include most of her Greatest Hits!) it is a singles collection that presents Nina Simone's soul and R&B-slanted 45s in chronological order. Invariably they are the definitive versions of the songs, whether she recorded the original versions or not. As well as almost all of her American pop and R&B chart hits from 1960 onwards, "Let It All Out" also contains all of Simone's UK chart hits from the same period - several of which were more successful here than they were back home, including both versions of her biggest British hit 'Ain't Got No; I Got Life', a UK #2 that did not chart at all in the US as was the case with the belated UK Top 5 hit 'My Baby Just Cares For Me' which also made no chart impression on it's home turf... Carefully curated and concisely annotated, "Let It All Out" let's the listener in to two dozen of Nina Simone's most celebrated singles. There have been many compilations of her works since she passed away 20+ years ago, but none that gets to the heart - and soul - of her catalogue in quite so direct a manner as this one does.
