Recorded in New York in 1967, Silk & Soul captures Nina Simone at a moment of artistic clarity and emotional force. Her second album for RCA blends soul, jazz and classical influence, highlighted by the powerful Civil Rights anthem “I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel to Be Free”. The record moves between intimate ballads, sharp social commentary and richly arranged interpretations, including her take on Dusty Springfield’s “The Look of Love” and the Mozart‑inspired “Consummation”. This limited edition pressing arrives on translucent red vinyl with a deluxe linen‑laminate sleeve, adding a tactile elegance to a landmark Simone recording.
