Title: Better than most . . .
Product review: Not her best, but much better than most others. I was slightly disappointed that Krall chose to go away from her piano talents more on this cd. Still, her voice is quite beautiful to listen too. Maybe those who have been so negative with this new release are comparing it too much to her previous works, or to the greats like Ella and Shirley. I've seen/read plenty of interviews with Diana Krall, and those few listeners are the only ones comparing her to the greats. For those who knocked "Let's Face the Music and Dance" for being "lackluster," look at the type of music it is . . . Bossa Nova? Since when was Bossa Nova brash and booming? The music type is smooth and unassuming, which Krall hits perfectly. Looks have nothing to do with talent such as hers, she could look like the elephant woman and still have a huge following with her kind of talent. I think this is an album that will prove its tremendous worth if given a fair listening.
