| | Nina Simone Little Girl Blue CD Nina Simone Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
Nina Simone's debut LP for the Bethlehem label, 1958's LITTLE GIRL BLUE, presents Simone's brooding sound and highly-focused eclecticism fully-formed from the very start. Even from the beginning, she stood to inherit Billie Holiday's mantle as the premiere jazz singer of the moment--a socially significant yet highly musical artist for the civil rights era just beginning to emerge. Whether by design or accident, Simone's classy juxtaposition of Bach, folk, and jazz standards--all '50s supper club staples to be sure--managed to pack a mighty prescient message for the heady days to come. Highlights include the original "My Baby Just Cares For Me" and a tender "I Loves You Porgy."
Personnel: Nina Simone (vocals); Jimmy Bond (double bass); Al "Tootie" Heath (drums).

| | Dolly Parton Trio CD (1987)
Little Girl Blue
$9.59 
A classic modern country album, THE TRIO is as pretty as music gets. The ethereal harmony vocals of three of popular music's sweetest swingers, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt, would be enough--their harmonies couldn't have been closer if they were triplets. But THE TRIO offers something more, gathering songs that not only utilize their natural singing talents but also bring out the emotional timbre of their collective voice.
From the ultra-pretty Phil Spector pop classic "To Know Him Is To Love Him" to the hard-country Jimmie Rodgers song "Hobo's Meditation" and the high-lonesome "Memories Of You," THE TRIO brims with musicality. There are several traditional songs, a folk song written by Jean Ritchie, the spine-tingling gospel standard "Farther Along" and some strong Dolly Parton originals. On "Telling Me Lies," written by Linda Thompson, Linda Ronstadt delivers one of her most controlled performances ever.
Import edition of multi-platinum 1987 Grammy winner that's out-of-print domestically. Featuring Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt & Emmylou Harris. Highlights include, 'Making Plans', 'Those Memories of You', 'I've Had Enough', 'Hobo's Meditation', 'Wildflowers', 'To Know Him Is To Love Him' (Phil Spector) & 'Telling Me Lies' (Linda Thompson).
Recorded at The Complex, West Los Angeles, California between January & November 1986.
Personnel includes: Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt (vocals); Emmylou Harris (vocals, acoustic guitar); Albert Lee (acoustic guitar); Steve Fishell (pedal steel guitar); Ry Cooder (tremolo guitar); Herb Pedersen (banjo); David Lindley (mandolin); Mark O'Connor (viola); Bill Payne (piano); Kenny Edwards (bass); Russ Kunkel (drums).
| | Dr John Gris-Gris CD (1968)
Little Girl Blue
$13.59 
New Orleans-born pianist Mac Rebennack had been making a living as a Los Angeles session musician for years before he adopted the persona of Dr. John, a name taken from a 19th-century witch doctor. Under that guise, he crafted a sound that mixed the old world of New Orleans (the tribal rhythms of the Mardi Gras Indians, second-line grooves, swamp blues) with the new musical world of 1968 (funk, R&B, rock, free jazz). The resulting gumbo bears a deep, dark, mysterious flavor full of voodoo mysticism and ancient rites.
GRIS-GRIS would have made the perfect soundtrack for a horror movie set in New Orleans, as Dr. John's raspy murmur weaves a hypnotic spell atop a bed of exotic-sounding string instruments, ominous keyboards, primal percussion stomps, and spooky background vocal chants. Few could have predicted that this fearsome medicine man would eventually metamorphose into a charming, accessible rock star.
Dr. John's 1968 release for Atco, reissued with original artwork and new liner notes. Extremely unique album, one part psychedelia, one part New Orleans R&B and one part...something else , voodoo ritual, maybe. First time on CD in the U.S. Standard jewelcase. 2000 release.
Includes reissue liner notes by Richie Unterberger.
Originally released on Atco (33-234).
Personnel includes: Dr. John (vocals, piano, percussion); Harold Battiste (arranger).

| | James Taylor One Man Band CD (2007) With DVD
Little Girl Blue
$18.65
With ONE MAN BAND, James Taylor becomes the third major musical icon, after Paul McCartney and Joni Mitchell, to sign with the Starbucks-affiliated music label Hear Music for a new releases. Unlike Mitchell and McCartney, Taylor is using his fresh start to take a well-deserved retrospective look over the course of his career. ONE MAN BAND is a two-disc set incorporating a live concert and a documentary DVD. The DVD is an exhaustive work directed by filmmaker Sydney Pollack that mixes new live concert material and interviews with rare archival footage, including both vintage television appearances and, appropriately for a documentary about an artist who has treated his musical career as a lifelong running autobiography, home movies and personal photographs. True to the album's title, the live concert on the CD features just Taylor's warm, mellow voice and his soulful, folk-influenced acoustic guitar. Recorded live in front of a hometown crowd in the hills of western Massachusetts, these 19 songs stretch back over 40 years, all the way to his first single, "Something in the Way She Moves," and include fine renditions of all his most beloved songs as well as several wry anecdotes about them. ONE MAN BAND is an intimate portrait nicely executed.
This new DVD/CD set of live recordings of new performances from one of the iconic singer/songwriter's most popular recordings is interspersed with his insightful and humorous anecdotes on the inspiration for the songs. The DVD includes bonus footage and outtakes.
