Нина Симон, с истинско име Юнис Катлин Уеймън, е американска певица, пианистка, композиторка и активистка за граждански права. Музикалният ѝ стил съчетава госпъл, блус, джаз, соул и класическа музика, особено творбите на Йохан Себастиан Бах. Прославила се с експресивния си контралтов глас и уникално сценично присъствие, което ѝ донесло прякора „върховна жрица на соула“.
Complete RCA Albums Collection на CD събира шест студийни албума, които Нина Симон записва за издателство RCA Victor: Nina Simone Sings the Blues, Silk & Soul, Nuff Said!, Nina Simone and Piano!, To Love Somebody и концертният албум Black Gold. Колекцията съдържа над 80 песни, включително хитовете Ain't Got No – I Got Life, To Be Young, Gifted and Black, To Love Somebody, Mississippi Goddam и I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free. Колекцията показва богатството на творчеството на Симон от края на шейсетте и началото на седемдесетте години, период, през който тя открито свързваше музиката си с борбата за граждански права.
