Companion is a June 1999 live recording from the stage of Chicago's historic Green Mill Jazz Club. Barber's Companion was a record of firsts for Barber and Premonition. First recording of Barber's legendary live show. First release under the Blue Note/Premonition joint imprint, the only such business arrangement in Blue Note's storied history. Designed as a 'companion' to Barber's previous studio recording Modern Cool, the album features several reinvented Modern Cool tracks, some of the best Barber pop covers on record and one ingenious new Barber original.
Remastered for vinyl by Paul Stubblebine at Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab from the original analog master mixes and featuring three sides at 33 1/2 and one side 45 RPM plus two bonus tracks, so that listeners get the full original release Without doubt, listeners will be impressed.
