Part of the Jean-Pierre Leloir Collection, Little Girl Blue, released in 1957, was Nina Simone\u2019s first recording ever. Many of the tracks from this 180 gram LP would become true classics, among them her perennial version of \u201cMy Baby Just Cares For Me\u201d. All Music Guide reviewer Thom Jurek gave the album four stars, stating that \u201cLittle Girl Blue showcases her ballad voice as one of mystery and sensuality and showcases her up-tempo jazz style with authority and an enigmatic down-home feel that is nonetheless elegant.\u201d<\/p>\n
