Christy Baron - I Thought About You [Half-Speed Master]

Indulge in the velvety richness of Christy Baron’s I Thought About You, a 1997 gem that marks her first foray into the Chesky Records realm. This 180g One Step Pressing Vinyl LP offers audiophiles a direct invitation to experience jazz like never before, recorded live in the stunning acoustics of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Manhattan. It's a warm, inviting space that beautifully complements Baron’s sumptuous vocal expressions.

In this illustrious collection, Baron brings her graceful artistry to a varied repertoire, intertwining classics from The Great American Songbook, like the soul-stirring “Misty,” with jazz standards such as Thelonious Monk’s “Round Midnight.” Adding to the magic, she breathes new life into soul anthems like Bill Withers' “Ain't No Sunshine” and delivers breathtaking interpretations from Stevie Wonder's masterwork, Songs In The Key Of Life, including the unforgettable “Knocks Me Off My Feet.”

Backed by the exceptional talents of Cliff Korman's piano, David Finck's bass, and Payton Crossley’s delicate drumming, the album radiates sonic brilliance. I Thought About You stands as a testament not only to Baron’s vocal prowess but also to the art of live jazz recording. This vinyl reissue is a must-add for any collector seeking a timeless experience of exquisite sound and emotional depth.
