Title: This Would Make Nat Nod with a Smile
Review: "All for You" is the album Diana Krall came to prominence with in 1996. It scored a Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album and although it lost out to Cassandra Wilson's gem "New Moon Daughter", remains one of the best releases of the talented Canadian singer/pianist.Krall's piano skills shine here as on none of her other albums. She has a reputation of hitting fewer notes with great effect, but on this tribute album to the great Nat King Cole her pianism reached heights close to virtuosity.Both on uptempo songs and ballads her style emits joy and intensity and, unlike with her later release "Love Scenes", the listener is not falling asleep at the end.This is Krall pianist at her best and singer almost there as well.
