Vocalist/pianist
Diana Krall
was a very hot property by the time this
Impulse
CD was released. Teamed in a trio with her regular guitarist
Russell Malone
and bassist
Christian McBride
,
Krall
here mostly emphasizes
ballads
having something to do with love. She is at her best on
"I Don't Know Enough About You,"
"I Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance With You,"
and
"How Deep Is the Ocean."
However,
's earlier
Nat King Cole
tribute had more variety in tempos and moods and is recommended first. A decent but not essential release. ~ Scott Yanow
