A New Spin on Stevie Wonder Classics on One-Step 180g Vinyl LP!
The daughter of "Cat's in the Cradle" singer Harry Chapin, Jen Chapin is a New York urban folk singer, songwriter and activist with an appetite for social justice. In 2008, accompanied solely by her husband, bassist Stephan Crump, and saxophonist Chris Cheek, she created "ReVisions" in which she reimagined a collection of Stevie Wonder songs to offer social commentary on Barack Obama's historic rise to power.
As much a testament to Chapin's unique artistic sensibility as a celebration of the enduring appeal and relevance of Wonder's songs, reVisions, which also includes two self-penned numbers, puts a new spin on Wonder classics like "Masterblaster (Jammin')," "You Haven't Done Nothin'," "Higher Ground" and "Village Ghetto Land."
"ReVisions" is a unique gem in the Chesky Records catalog. As part of the "Chesky Original Masters" series, Evosound now presents an excellent reissue of this wonderful album: The 180-gram vinyl (33 rpm) was pressed in the sonically superior one-step process, which brilliantly showcases Chesky's famous production and recording techniques, and comes with new liner notes as well as a recent interview with Jen Chapin.
