Celebrating 30th Anniversary of Jennifer Warnes' The Hunter!

"The follow-up to Warnes' FBR offers crisp percussion cues, solid bass throughout — but especially during 'Way Down Deep' — and a surprise chamber quartet on the title track." — Neil Gader, TAS Guide to Audiophile Demo Disc

Impex Records is celebrating the 30th Anniversary of The Hunter with a one-time, individually-numbered pressing of 3,000 in crystal clear green vinyl! Jennifer Warnes' acclaimed follow-up to Famous Blue Raincoat features a Grammy-nominated recording by Elliot Scheiner and all-tube mastering by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering using Jennifer's personal original analog master tapes.

The Hunter was released five years after her breakthrough with Famous Blue Raincoat. A Top 100 LP when it was first released in 1992, The Hunter's audiophile credibility is best summed up by Elliot Scheiner's Grammy-nominated recording and mix. It contains the charting single "Rock You Gently," a sonically dense yet expansive cover of The Waterboy's classic "The Whole of the Moon," a soulful Jennifer Warnes/Leonard Cohen composition "Way Down Deep," Todd Rundgren's "Pretending to Care" and even a Donald Fagen tune ("Big Noise, New York").

She owns every tune here, backed by A-list session players who ground the songs with solid and unobtrusive authority, letting Jennifer's peerless interpretive skills bring the soul of every lyric to the forefront. Warnes uses her voice to serve the lyrics, allowing the song to return the favor.
