 Rating:  - Going downhillObviously it depends upon what you like, and this CD is OK but not a patch on her earlier recordings. If like me you highly rated her Love Songs and Live in Paris jazz albums, this one and her more recent recordings will be a disappointment. Rating:  - The Lady is BackI was afraid, that Diana Krall was travelling the downward slopes of becaming a syruppy pop singer. I don't know who put her, temporarily, in that wrong path, but maybe it was Claus Oggerman. In the Paris Olympia Concert on DVD, despite all compliments, she is playing against Oggerman's orchestra and she shines with a small rythm section, even if her left hand cannot give us bass notes on the piano. With any good bass player, and sound engineer, it is easilly overcame. Now, in this wonderfull album she devellopped the cooperation with great jazz musicians. Her voice has darkened a little and that is essential for a jazz singer (no pun intended). Next time, even if it is still too early in what will be a long ...

Great to see Diana has return to the small group with regrettably with orchestra background but most of all singing the standards she is better known for. Would have liked to have heard more from her regular backing instrumentalists though. As usual in great voice and very laid back on this album, but I felt the backing orchestra a sleight distraction. I much prefer her swinging efforts (Exactly Like You). `From this moment on' she has to complete with the orchestra that spoilt it for me but it's a matter of taste? Diana excels as a small group artist proven with her rendition of `I was doing alright' ... Read More: Rating: - Perfectly executedI have been a Diana Krall fan for a few years now and in my opinion this is one of her best albums. If you are new to Diana's work then I heartily recommend this album (and "When I Look in Your Eyes) as being an excellent place to start your collection. If you are already a fan of hers then you will undoubtedly enjoy this album and should buy it right away! The production quality, arrangement and performance of this album are all top notch and the song choices suit her voice perfectly. For those people who weren't as keen on her last album (which was material she had written largely in collaboration with her husband Elvis Costello) you will be pleased with her return to the 'standards' - classic songs given the Krall makeover. Even though ... Read More: Rating: - Sublime and tremendous album. Diana Krall's finest moment.From the opening track 'It Could Happen To You' right the way through to the final track 'The Boulevard of Broken Dreams', this album is a pure joy to listen to. All the arrangements are spot on and the momentum of the wonderful and outstanding orchestrations never slips for a second. 'Isn't This A Lovely Day' is a wonderful and soothing track that is sung with elegance and grace by Mrs Costello. Also a stand-out song is the title track 'From This Moment On'. It has a beautiful tempo throughout and once again sung with great feeling. In fact, the whole album is peppered with first rate arrangements and orchestrations. 'Day In Day Out' is a marvellous foot-tapper and features one of my favourite jazz instruments, a double bass. To be perfectly ... Read More: |
