40 Original Recordings - Digital Remestered

Description:

Released in June 1958, this album (originally issued under the title Little Girl Blue on Bethlehem BCP-6028) was Nina Simoneâ??s first studio recording ever. Made when she was 25-years old, the album was a huge success and led to a tremendous career that would yield over 80 studio sessions. It was originally issued on the Bethlehem label and features the singer/pianist backed by bassist Jimmy Bond (who had been a member of the Chet Baker Quartet among other groups) and drummer Albert â??Tootieâ? Heath (one of the celebrated Heath brothers, along with saxophonist Jimmy Heath, and bassist Percy Heath). Many of the tracks from this LP would become true classics, among them her perennial versions of â??My Baby Just Cares for Meâ? and â??I Loves You, Porgyâ?. (The latter track was also released as a single.) Simoneâ??s piano is well featured throughout the LP, but â??Central Park Bluesâ? and â??Good Baitâ? are the only purely instrumental tracks. Nina Simone, vocals & piano Jimmy Bond, bass Albert â??Tootieâ? Heath, drums Bond & Heath out on â??Donâ??t Smoke in Bedâ?. New York, December 1957. Bonus tracks: From the same sessions, but not included on the original LP. - 40 ORIGINAL RECORDINGS - DIGITAL REMESTERED

Two CD set that explores Nina Simone's rise from gutsy debutante to bona fide star from her debut at Bethlehem to her seminal Colpix studio recordings via a superb live set at Newport. There's no denying Simone's pedigree and these 50 tracks represent the beginning and development of what would be a lifelong career as a living legend.
