Dianne Reeves, who selected the songs for this 1997 edition, explains, 'I understand why they called Nina the High Priestess of Soul. To me, she has a tear in her voice. It is rich and dark and beautiful. Her sound is undeniable." Many of her lyrics tell of women yearning for freedom; includes Four Women, See-Line Woman, Wild is the Wind, Take Me To the Water, and more.
