Patricia Barber Modern Cool: VR900-D2 Edition on 180g 2LP from Impex: Remastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Master, Pressed on VR900-D2 Vinyl at Fidelity Record Pressing
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.
Pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing on pristine VR900-D2 vinyl, and newly remastered by Bernie Grundman using David Glasser's original master, this 180g 33RPM 2LP faithfully reproduces every dynamic nuance and tonal accuracy of the of the original recording without harshness or sibilance. The deluxe new package updates the stylish original design and adds an exclusive heavy-stock booklet with complete lyrics and exclusive session photos from Barber photographer Valerie Booth.
