Little Girl Blue – Limited 180-Gram Crystal Clear Vinyl with Bonus Tracks [Import] (Limited Edition, 180 Gram Vinyl, Clear Vinyl, Bonus Tracks, Spain – Import)

Description

Little Girl Blue, released in 1957, was Nina Simone’s first studio recording ever. It was originally issued on the Bethlehem label and features the singer and pianist backed by bassist Jimmy Bond and drummer Albert “Tootie” Heath. Many of the tracks from this LP would become true classics, among them her perennial version of “My Baby Just Cares For Me”. This album introduced Nina not only as a brilliant singer, but also as a unique jazz pianist. She was a solid improviser and her reworking of such well-known standards as Duke Ellington’s “Mood Indigo” and Tadd Dameron’s “Good Bait”, besides being highly inventive, reveal her extensive classical music training.
