Years after the 1990s, the decade will be remembered for the rise of pianist vocalist Diana Krall. Simply put, this
British Columbian born artist is one of the most engaging musicians to emerge from the heap of scat happy singers high
on pyrotechnics, but short on poetry. Stamped with the imprimatur of the Nat King Cole trio and blessed by her
apprenticeship with the late West Coast piano giant Jimmy Rowles, Krall simply sings songs the way they're supposed to
be sung: with devotion to the lyric and with attention to the groove. This CD finds Krall in familiar company with
compatriots Russell Malone (on guitar), bassist John Clayton, drummers Lewis Nash and Jeff Hamilton, and vibraphonist
(and former Bill Evans associate) Larry Bunker all supported by Johnny Mandel's svelte string arrangements. Krall and
crew take Irving Berlin's chestnut "Let's Face the Music and Dance" and the Sinatra signatured "I've Got
You Under My Skin" south to Brazil via a sexy bossa nova. Malone's lush guitar accompaniment complements Krall's
heartfelt delivery on "When I Look in Your Eyes", and Michael Franks's "Popsicle Toes" dances
courtesy of Hamilton's drum work. "Devil May Care", "East of the Sun (and West of the Moon)", The
Best Thing for You", and the stridish "I Can't Give You Anything but Love" groove with a minimum of
waste, while Mandel's simpatico strings steal the show on "I'll String Along with You", "Pick Yourself
Up", and "Do It Again". All of which further illuminate the cool fire from this fine gift from North of
the Border. 

WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES, a 1999 Verve release, heralds thereturn of the cool and groovy Latin tinged jazz of the '60s.
Upon hearing the opening track, a bossa nova fied version of Irving Berlin's "Let's Face The Music And Dance",
one might think he had accidentally put on a Getz/Gilberto record. In fact, it's hard to avoid comparing Krall's breathy
alto to that of Astrud Gilberto particularly on the more samba flavoured numbers.

But Krall ultimately resists comparisons.Her simultaneously textured and smooth tone, warm timbre, and conversational
phrasing mark her as unique. The set of standards here, including "Let's Fall In Love", "I've Got You
Under My Skin", and "Pick Yourself Up" among others, is enhanced by fine session musicians and Johnny
Mandel's tasteful arrangements. While Krall is more than comfortable with a sly swing (Michael Franks' "Popsicle
Toes"), it is the stirring ballads like the title track that show her skill to best advantage. Krall is a
considerable talent, and the time-tested, well-loved sound that characterises these tracks should ensure her success.
