Diana Krall

Does anyone know if her live DVD's (Rio and Montreal Jazz Festival) can be purchased in CD or SACD format?  My Music Vault does not read DVD or Blue Ray.

Man, some of you guys have thin skins!  I didn’t think that responses to a post about an artist or a concert experience needed to be limited to posts expressing agreement, but used as an opportunity to discuss and offer reasons for why there is agreement or disagreement.  And if one or two posters are less than generous with their comments, so what?  I haven’t seen anything particularly “ugly” written about any artist so far.  How about everyone be a little more secure with their preferences and opinions.  Personally, I don’t particularly like Krall for many of the reasons already stated.  For a jazz singer her delivery sounds to me as stylistically forced and way too deliberate; planned.  I envision a singer who practices her delivery (interpretation) over and over down to the last little “nuance” and detail with the end result being that there is little sense of the spontaneity and looseness that great jazz singing demands.  Pleasant enough and I agree that the stuff that is more pop is more effective, but I think the point is that like others I prefer to listen to singers like London and Horne.  

Going to see her this weekend with my girl.  Really looking forward to it!

Enjoy!  Have a great time and please report back.

Truth sometimes ugly. Donald Trump clearly knows that.
