    Lesley Gore’s I’ll Cry If I Want To is her 1963 debut album and a terrific snapshot of early 1960s teen pop at its most dramatic and catchy. Released shortly after “It’s My Party” became a huge hit, the album leans into the heartbreak theme with songs like “Cry,” “Just Let Me Cry,” and “Judy’s Turn to Cry,” while also giving Gore room to tackle classics such as “Cry Me a River,” “Misty,” and “What Kind of Fool Am I?” Produced by the legendary Quincy Jones, the record has that polished, punchy Mercury sound that makes 1960s pop so much fun on vinyl. It reached No. 24 on the Billboard album chart and remains an essential starting point for anyone exploring Lesley Gore’s remarkable career.
