Nina

  Nina Simone - my baby just cares for me (live)
Nina Simone - I Got It Bad

Nina Simone - If You Knew
If you knew how I missed you
You would not stay away today
Don't you know I need you
Stay here my dear with me

I need you here my darling
Together for a day a day
Together never parting
Just you just me my love

I can't go on without you
Your love is all I'm living for
I love all things about you
Your heart your soul my love

I need you here beside me
Forever and a day a day
I know whatever betides me
I love you I love you I do

Jimmy Smith

   
   Jimmy Smith Born in Norristown outside of Philadelphia on December 8, 1928. Both of his parents were pianists, Jimmy revealed his musical talents early. He was playing stride piano by fourteen and performing with his piano-playing father in a dance team during the early forties. A prodigy who won a Major Bowes contest in 1935, Smith quickly gained experience working throughout western Pennsylvania, performing on the radio in Philadelphia, and teaming with his dad for nightclub work. Jimmy sings as he speaks of his father. "My ol' man played the Old Town stuff. He was a D-flat piano player. He played a bass and the chord, yeah. He was working when I wasn't working. Oh man, Daddy was working four nights a week--I mean making good bucks plus plastering in the day time."
