Our Take

Nina Simone's "Little Girl Blue (+9 Bonus Tracks)" is an absolute treasure trove for fans of the iconic singer. This limited edition reissue truly takes the listener on a journey through Simone's unique blend of jazz, blues, and soul.

From the moment the needle hits the vinyl, you are transported to a smoky nightclub in 1960s New York City, where Simone's powerful voice takes center stage. Tracks like "My Baby Just Cares For Me" and "Mood Indigo" showcase her incredible vocal range and emotional depth.

But it's the bonus tracks that really set this album apart. These nine additional songs provide a closer look at Simone's versatility as an artist, from the hauntingly beautiful "Plain Gold Ring" to the playful "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands."

Simone's piano skills are showcased throughout the album, with intricate melodies that perfectly complement her powerful vocals. Each track is a masterclass in storytelling, with themes of love, heartbreak, and resilience woven throughout.

Overall, "Little Girl Blue (+9 Bonus Tracks)" is a must-have for any music lover. It's a timeless classic that continues to resonate with listeners decades after its initial release. So grab a glass of wine, dim the lights, and let Nina Simone's enchanting music sweep you off your feet.
