this is my favorite Krall recording so far. this one is back to her small combo Jazz roots. there are a few cuts with a string section.....but it sounds natural and in the same acoustic. the band is tight, Krall's piano playing is very good and outstanding in places. the recording is very natural and the soundstage is believable with an excellent sense of presence. Krall swings and is in very good voice.
the highlight for me is Joni Mitchell's "A Case Of You"......which is a solo with Diana and her piano.....i got this disc yesterday afternoon and i have already played this cut 4 times......very, very special.
this cd will be in my 'heavy rotation' for awhile......a must buy.
i have not seen/heard the dvd of this performance but have read that it is also very good.
