Little Niles is a jazz composition in waltz time by pianist Randy Weston. It was first recorded in 1956 for the album With These Hands... and later appeared on the 1958 album Little Niles, which Weston wrote inspired by his two young children Niles (later known as Azzedine) and Pamela. The tune has become a jazz standard, and lyrics were added by Jon Hendricks for Lambert, Hendricks & Ross on The Swingers! (1958). It has been recorded by many artists, including Herbie Mann, Oscar Pettiford, Abbey Lincoln, George Shearing, Phineas Newborn, and Kenny Barron.
