Sleeve Notes by Sid McCoy
Song information:
- "My Man's Gone Now", from the opera Porgy & Bess by George Gershwin.
- "Backlash Blues", one of Simone's civil rights songs. The lyrics were written by her friend and poet Langston Hughes.
- "I Want a Little Sugar in My Bowl", based on a song by Simone's great example, Bessie Smith, but with somewhat different lyrics.
- "The House of the Rising Sun" was previously recorded live by Simone in 1962 on Nina at the Village Gate. After its cover by The Animals became a hit, she recorded it in studio. The fast-paced version on this album is very different from the slow, intimate version on Nina at the Village Gate.
