"THE VERY BEST OF DIANA KRALL"
If you are not familiar with Canadian-born Diana Krall, she could perhaps best be described as the current generation's female version of Nat King Cole: she has a mellow vocal style that's all her own, and she's a consummate pianist just like Nat was. Both could wrap their arms around a great song and sing it with panache that never goes out of style. She reminds us of Nat in his Cole Trio jazz days.Being a blond-haired beauty adds an element of seductiveness and sensuality to Diana, who is a popular stage performer and TV guest in addition to scoring big in the recording field. While becoming a sensation in the jazz world, she reaches across genre borders with her lush voice and simple, yet soulful piano style. Krall has, in fact, become one of the best-selling jazz artists in the world, appealing to audiences that aren't limited merely to jazz aficionados. “The Very Best Of Diana Krall” plays like a cool breeze relieving a steamy Summer day. The CD goes from 1996’s “All For You”
