The complete LP + 2 bonus track pressed on limited edition 180g red vinyl, contains new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide to Jazz's writer Brian Morton and Paris' prestigious Jazz Magazine. Nina Simone's first studio recording, the 1957 LP Little Girl Blue, featured the singer backing herself on piano, with Jimmy Bond on bass and Albert "Tootie" Heath on drums. Another trio (with Wilbur Ware on bass, and Ben Riley on drums) backed her during her first big break: the recording of her September 12, 1959, concert at New York's Town Hall, issued that same year as Nina Simone at Town Hall. It includes such classics as 'Black Is the Color of My True Love's Hair', 'The Other Woman', and an extended reading of Gershwin's 'Summertime'.
