Nina Simone was born on February 21st 1933'
There has been news recently of a plan to buy Nina Simone's childhood home in Tryon North Carolina and make it into a museum celebrating the life and work of the girl who was born Eunice Waymon.
I interviewed Nina in December 1998 just before her last ever show at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
She was talking to me for a programme on the radio station Jazz fm, which would promote the concert.
Nina had a reputation for being a tricky interviewee but on the day she was delightful and during the conversation she was eager to give her views on sexism, racism and feminism.
After the interview I was asked to introduce Nina on stage at the Albert Hall. It was a memorable day.
