About

Nina Simone's sixth album for Philips Records was Wild Is the Wind, released in 1966. The album was compiled
from several recordings that were left over from sessions for previous Philips albums. The song "Four Women" was
released as a single, and gained attention when banned by the New York jazz focused radio station WLIB due to
concern over the lyrics. "Wild Is The Wind" was covered by David Bowie on his 1976 studio recording Station to
Station. - Acoustic Sounds
