Priceless, timeless Nina Simone. Many thanks.
I got excited when she mentioned Mississippi Goddam at the opening -- then it wasn't on the clip.
A couple of different versions are at You Tube but this one is the one she performed this time.
Audio quality leaves something to be desired but the spirit is perfect. http://youtu.be/TkcuNX4vrS8
