Wild Is The Wind, Nina Simone's sixth album for Philips, has all the variety her work for the label was known for-from the minimal title track to the traditional folk song "Black Is The Color Of My True Love's Hair" to the banned-on-radio "Four Women". In 2020, the album was ranked 212 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Verve's Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
