Well I'm not sure I'd call this jazz, but that opening song was sweet. Oh this next one is, certainly. Ah yeah, this is just pure class. What can I say? As Occult would say: unassailable. And beautiful. Top marks. Nina Simone's “Do I Move You” is pure blues sensuality and she does it so well. Could be the standout track on a standout album. Then again, her version of “Blowin' in the Wind” is pretty special too. Great album.
