Yes, this is a really great one, both musically and soundwise. My clear #1 favorite when it comes to Nina Simone. More small-scale, jazzy, displaying more of her instrumental strengths (and training), and sung with heartbreaking finesse (for her standards, that is).It's out in a few different versions, in Japan and Europe at least, under titles like "Jazz as Played in an Exclusive Side Street Club" (under Bethlehem/Charly, which is what I have) and some others which I can't recall now. Includes titles "Moon Indigo," "Don't Smoke in Bed" (tremendously done), "He Needs Me," "Little Girl Blue," "Love Me or Leave Me," "My Baby Just Cares for Me," "Good Bait" (good one!), "Plain Gold Ring," "You'll Never Walk Alone," "I Loves You Porgy" (her best version), "Central Park Blues," and 4 bonus tracks. Just so you know what to look for.
