"Sonically, one of the best recordings ever made by a Jazz Singer with small acoustic ensemble." –Downbeat, rated 5 stars

"Smart songs about the way we think and live, not just about the way we love. This is the kind of art we need to be on the lookout for everywhere. The 21st century has started. We can't afford to be left behind." –New York Times

"An Album To Die For." –Stereophile

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 a 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.

It quickly became an audiophile classic through Jim Anderson's stunningly-detailed naturalistic recording.

The deluxe new package updates the stylish original design with a booklet and includes new notes from Jim Anderson and many exclusive session and tour photos from Barber photographer Valerie Booth.

For a perfectly immersive experience, the 5.1 SACD layer features the same Grammy®-winning surround mix master, plus a Bernie Grundman stereo remaster using Jim Anderson's original analog stereo mix master in both full-DSD and CD format.
