Nina Simone - Gimme a Pigfoot (And a Bottle of Beer)

Nina gives a touch to every song... this one is no exception. Her performance of this Wesley Wilson song is very playful yet powerful. It's like no matter what she sings, she owns the lyrics and me...

I love this song. Nina does this very good but I still dig Lady Day's version the best, Thanks for posting this.

Yes she sang it very good, but the song is actually from Bessie Smith. And she wrote it, because she was an alcoholic.

Maybe it is because I heard the Bessie Smith version first but it is a lot better. This version almost sounds to smooth. It does not have that "Oh God, the sun is coming up" feel to it.

I agree. The version by Bessie Smith just seems more "real" I guess.

Bessie Smith is better
