’Nuff Said! is an album by Jazz singer/pianist/songwriter Nina Simone (1933–2003). It was recorded (excluding tracks 1, 8, 11) at Westbury Music Fair, April 7, 1968, three days after the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King. The whole program that night was dedicated in his memory. The album received an Emmy nomination and featured one of Nina’s biggest hits in Europe, “Ain't Got No, I Got Life”.



Third album with RCA, most oh the tracks was recorded at Westbury Music Fair on 7 April 1968, three days after Martin Luther King assassination. Also published in UK (LP RD 7979) and in France (740.554). This LP, recorded live at the Westbury Music Fair in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, might well have been called "The Best of Nina Simone." "Why? (The King of Love is Dead)" is a tribute to Dr. King, and was widely received as a single. "Ain't Got No" and "I Got Life," two songs from the musical "Hair" are performed with a steady beat that becomes infectious. One of her most commercial LP's.

Billboard - 19 October 1968
