Description: Strange Fruit compiles rare studio and live recordings from Nina Simone's early career, including her 1956 Atlantic City performances—some of her first ever captured. The album features a mix of intimate club sets and early Colpix singles, showcasing Simone's unique blend of classical training and jazz improvisation. The title track, a haunting rendition of the anti-lynching protest song, underscores her role as a powerful voice in civil rights-era music.
