Description
This title was out of print before it was even pressed! Only 6,000 copies were made. Get it while it lasts!
Mastered by Bernie Grundman. Cut at 45 RPM! Pressed on HQ 180-gram virgin vinyl! Approved by Jennifer Warnes herself, who announced upon first listening, "That's it!!!"
…This is a sumptuous sounding and beautifully presented three-record box. Cut at 45 rpm, FBR now has an improved momentum and a deeper bass, which strengthens the rhythmic sense of Jenny's delivery as it propels us through these exceptional and well-loved Leonard Cohen songs. The transparency, delineation and overall presentation of her delicious vocals are verisimilitude in vinyl."
Recording = 10/10; Music = 9.5/10 – Reuben Parry, Hi-Fi+, Issue 58 Famous Blue Raincoat 20th Anniversary Edition 45 RPM LP set features three LPs of quiet virgin vinyl, a 24-page 12" square booklet with complete lyrics, five bonus tracks (four from the Shout! Factory CD plus a Cisco exclusive analog demo recording of "A Singer Must Die," with one missing verse added and a breathtakingly upfront vocal by Jennifer), production notes and exclusive photographs, all packed in a beautiful box for excellent presentation and preservation of your investment.
The 45-RPM version of this great title is a much more refined and satisfying listening experience. Bass is deeper, highs glisten but aren't excessive and Jennifer's non-EQ'd voice becomes a "living presence" in your listening room. An important and much-loved record like Famous Blue Raincoat deserves to be heard exactly as the artist intended.
On Famous Blue Raincoat: The Songs of Leonard Cohen, Jennifer Warnes rearranged and reinterpreted some of Leonard Cohen's greatest songs for a unique album that remains the ultimate tribute to Cohen's music. It was greeted with rave reviews, and made numerous year-end best-of lists.
