Diana Krall

I was in Fort Lauderdale last Thursday and saw/heard Diana Krall.  Second time, first was in Wilkes Barre PA after Wallflower cd, this one after her recent one.  Two quite different concerts, both outstanding.  This one was "jazzy", an upright bass, a drummer, guitarist, fiddle/violinist (and a pianist/vocalist).  5 great musicians on the stage, and a wonderful singer.  She is wonderful live.  Highly recommended, as equipment reviewers often say.  Worth the price of admission.

Thanks for mentioning Kandace Springs.  I just sampled "Soul Eyes" on amazon and am sold.  Like you said very fresh sound beautifully recorded as is Bluenote's practice.  Just ordered the CD!

Don’t get it. I understand the success and enormous talent and everything but her style and phrasing does absolutely nothing for me. Boring ho hum sums it up for me. The Michael Buble equivalent in the lightweight jazz genre.

+2 for the Live in Paris release. I have a couple of Diana Krall CD's. I find the studio release......ok but the live CD is great in my opinion. I have also seen her live and very much enjoyed the show.

IMO,.... Dianna is a "student of the art of jazz interpretation".

......nuff said..........

She’s surpassed the student stage..long ago..
