Another trio (with Wilbur Ware on bass, and Ben Riley on drums) backed her during her first big break: the recording of her September 12, 1959, concert at New York's Town Hall, issued that same year as Nina Simone at Town Hall. It includes such classics as 'Black Is the Color of My True Love's Hair', 'The Other Woman', and an extended reading of Gershwin's 'Summertime'.
