Diana Krall Survey

Dump Elvis, not 1 song I can listen to in it's entirety...I'll get on the constructive feedback for Norah also....yawn

There must be some accomplished jazz musicians on this forum to be able to trash a musician at the level of Diana Krall. She might not be to everyone's taste but trashing her is pathetic - I would like to see any of you try to play a piano anywhere near to her level.

I like her tune "Temptation" on the "New Jazz Divas" compilation.

Just a touch sultry and sexy. Very nice!

Vicks 7,
I will admit that I was overstating my dislike for her. I think she is a certain taste, but overrated. On the other hand, I hope that you are not really trying to compare her to any of the great jazz pianists.

As an amateur jazz musician I think people should just give a more considered view on professional musicians. Everyone is entitled to their opinion as to what they like and do not like but to simply trash a professional musician with no basis and likely no background in music I find hard to let it go without saying something. I think Audiogon is a great site but there are over 80,000 posts on equipment and 5,000 posts on music and with respect I don't think many on this forum are qualified to be able to criticize a professional musician of the level of a Diana Krall. Krall has serious chops, has played since the age of four, studied at Berklee etc. I am not trying to compare her with anyone.
