1	Modern Cool (1998) more music like this by Patricia Barber The dark, smoky voice of Patricia Barber is quite haunting. On Modern Cool, she mostly sings downbeat songs at slow tempos. All but three songs are her own originals, and they deal with such subject matter as an "homage to beauty" that seems to connect painting one's face with prostitution, loneliness, mindless conformity, the "Postmodern Blues," ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.98!
2	Mythologies (2006) more music like this by Patricia Barber Is it still art when you can fingerpop to it? Finally, it's arrived. In 2003 jazz songwriter, pianist, and bandleader Patricia Barber received a Guggenheim fellowship to create a song cycle based on Ovid's Metamorphoses. Barber is that rare kind of jazz artist -- she appeals to non-jazz fans. She's as ambitious as they get and her poetic, ... see all copies from $9.53! new only from $9.89!
3	Live: A Fortnight in France (2004) more music like this by Patricia Barber Since her beguiling 1991 debut, Distortion of Love, songwriter, pianist, and vocalist Patricia Barber has steadfastly remained true to her quirky, left-of-center jazz vision, which includes equal parts edgy pop and rock. Barber has a fluid, restlessly individualistic style on the piano; she can hold her own with anybody. Her songwriting comes from ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $10.59!
4	Split (1997) more music like this by Patricia Barber Pianist/vocalist Patricia Barber's recording debut, Split, is a fairly straight-ahead affair featuring the idiosyncratic stylist on various standards and originals. Showcasing her unique approach to jazz, the album finds Barber mixing pointed and minimalist lines à la Chet Baker with a dramatic cabaret vocal style and complex harmonic post-bop ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $10.07!
5	Jazz: Discover an American Original '99 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists This budget jazz sampler features Narm label artists like Gabriela Anders, Patricia Barber, Terrence Blanchard, Mimi Gox, Gota, Rhythm & Brass, and the Tin Hat Trio. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
6	A Distortion of Love (1991) more music like this by Patricia Barber Pianist and singer Patricia Barber's second album (and major-label debut) is a consistently interesting, but not always completely rewarding, array of original instrumentals, vocal standards, and surprise cover versions. The arrangement of "Summertime" that opens the program is eerie almost to the point of creepiness, and all the more effective ... see all copies from $8.96! new only from $8.96!
7	The Premonition Years: 1994-2002 (2007) more music like this by Patricia Barber The Premonition Years: 1994-2002 collects tracks the jazz pianist/singer/songwriter Patricia Barber recorded for the independent Premonition label. These are the cuts that helped solidify Barber's reputation as an enigmatic, cerebral, and creatively inspired artist with a knack for intimate and reflective cabaret-influenced performances that ... see all copies from $30.85! new only from $30.85!
8	Café Blue [Koch] (2004) more music like this by Patricia Barber Patricia Barber, who is both a fine keyboardist and an atmospheric singer, contributes roughly half of the material to her Premonition debut. Her dark voice and the generally esoteric program takes awhile to get used to (listeners will have to be patient), but after two or three listens, this thought-provoking and rather moody set becomes more ... see all copies from $15.65! new only from $15.65!
9	Verse (2002) more music like this by Patricia Barber Pianist/vocalist Patricia Barber is the Alanis Morissette of the jazz world. Her serpentine, poetic songs teeter between deftly witty and awkwardly Latinate. Each album is more ambitious than the last, taking her deeper into avant-garde territory both lyrically and instrumentally. Verse is no exception. Case in point: "I Could Eat Your Words," a ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $13.80!

11 view cover	Night Club (2000) more music like this by Patricia Barber Chicago native and classically trained pianist Patricia Barber's sixth album is a collection of downtempo standards, perfect for a rainy day. Taking on classics like "Autumn Leaves," "I Fall in Love Too Easily," "Bye Bye Blackbird," or even "Alfie" is always a risk, but her confident vocals and interpretations eradicate any doubt that she is a ... see all copies from $14.51! new only from $14.51!

13 view cover	Companion (1999) more music like this by Patricia Barber Companion was recorded in a special three-night series of shows in July, 1999 at Chicago's famed Green Mill jazz club -- an unusually short amount of time to produce a live album. To mine as much material as possible from those nights the performances were run more like recording sessions than live shows, with the crowd reverently hushed. Patricia ... see all copies from $26.90! new only from $26.90!

16 view cover	Women Who Swing Chicago (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Women Who Swing Chicago presents an overview of some of the female musicians making an impact on Chicago's jazz scene in the late '90s. Really, the only thing binding this material together is the fact that women were largely responsible for it; the range of styles is enormous, from big-band swing and torch balladry to cool jazz, hard bop, and a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.45!
