Modern Cool [180 Gram]

Patricia Barber's Modern Cool brought her mainstream success, propelled by her classic version of the Doors' "Light My Fire." Touring for this album, Barber played selections from it during her four-night stand at The Jazz Standard in New York. There she was heard by Bruce Lundvall of Blue Note Records, which led to a string of popular Barber recordings for both Premonition and Blue Note, worldwide touring and the unapologetic critical acclaim from which Barber never looked back. Modern Cool quickly became an audiophile classic both through Jim Anderson's stunningly-detailed, naturalistic recording, and the mastery of Barber's writing and performance! In our latest collaboration with Barber, this pristine VR900-D2-pressed 180-gram LP, newly re-mastered by Bernie Grundman using David Glasser's original master, faithfully reproduces every dynamic nuance and tonal accuracy of the of the original recording without harshness or sibilance. We then applied the Impex Treatment to the deluxe new package, updating the stylish original design and adding an exclusive heavy-stock booklet with complete lyrics and exclusive session photos from Barber photographer Valerie Booth. Even if you already own a copy of this modern cool jazz classic, our new LP adds value and never-before-heard sonics worthy of your upgrade. Audiophile 33rpm 180g Vinyl Double LP! Newly Remastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original David Glasser Master! Pressed on VR900-D2 Vinyl at Fidelity Record Pressing!
