Nina Simone - Good Bait

[pamella1974]

she is just amazing, isn't she?

[markusjovanovic]

love this tune

[MichaelHTillman]

I've never heard her play solo. Could I love her more?

[anitadavideduo]

Wonderful!!

[neiltesser]

There is no question that this was written by Tadd Dameron FOR Count Basie's band, as well documented since it was recorded: copyright, manuscript, dozens of recordings several by Dameron himself). The user who posted this video would do his followers a service by correcting his initial written intro.

I've loved Nina Simone's version of this Basie tune since the late 1950s. Finding it again feels like being embraced by an old friend.

[ArielJonathan]

Everybody agrees that music is a language?

Well then, becaus this is the best passionate speech ever!

My god I could die at 4:53 .......... !

Without fake rain and a music video, even without words, you can feel all the heartbreak in this song. She requires nothing to aid her performance. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[BuckshotLaFunke]

It was written by Tadd Dameron. I have an old Riverside LP, called 'Studio Jazz Party' with Johnny Griffin, Norman Simmons et al. The songs are introduced to the public by singer Babs Gonzalez, who tells them it's been written by Tadd Dameron. And he was one of the jazz people in the know.

[PowerfulMindsofWomen]

Great music. Thanks for posting!

[kolaas2006]

the end sounds different than the beginning

[nevilleprinsloo]

duh

[Boris4Art]

yes offcourse it is, it is a song, and songs can be played in a different way. And the end is still the same, only played with much more tones.

[Madrandomize]

i have  nothing to say but thanks for sharing this song with us!!! you made my day !!!! thanks again!!!!

[crazydog53]

Hi, you said the piece of music was penned by Count Basie, but Wikipedia and iTune said its composed by Tadd Dameron...so which one was the right person?

it's an awesome song by the way, i totally love it.

[trigorina]

Both.

[shreddakj]

It's Tadd Dameron not Count Basie.

[impulsobytheshades]

@shreddakj i think were both

[gla76]

This song is absolutely awesome, does anybody have an actual video of Nina playing this song?

Thanks!

[mskeko]

I am not aware that there is a video that includes a performance of this particular song but I'd say it's worth checking the song lists on DVDs for sale online --that's the only thing I can think of really... unless someone comes forward with specific info :) I'll keep my ears open.

[trigorina]

This version of the song is in Nina 1st album "Jazz as Played in an Exclusive Side Street Club" aka "Little Girl Blue", from 1957 or 1958. I doubt there is any actual video with Nina playing this.

[yunkah95]

The album's been re-released at budget price with 22 additional tracks by Not Now Music under the title 'My Baby Just Cares For Me'.

[ecrira4u]
