You know every time this appears on the iPad I must watch..the introduction really grabs you and holds your attention…or my attention I should say 🤪🥰🤩💜🌹🌹🌹
The guitarist is Marc Ribot. I don't know him. I got that from a NY Times review of this CD. If you like this you've gotta go to the original recording of "There Ain't No Sweet Man" which is available here on RU-vid under Bix Beiderbecke Bing Crosby. I've always seen in Diana Krall bios that her father could play virtually everything that Fazts Waller ever recorded and had dreams of asking her to give us a little stride piano some day. But this is even better! I love it!
I applaud Diana for exploring new sounds and producers, but frankly I can't wait for a another bossa and standards album. I'd really like her working with Vince Mendoza and William Ross.
Great, I got this álbum just some time ago and I didn't know much about how much content it had (has), I can figure it out now. Love Diana and this magnificent álbum.
I disagree papagJazz, I saw the show last night and I loved it! I think the new music is amazing and T Bone is the man!!! I'm a big fan of jazz and Diana and I found her last show a couple years ago almost put me to sleep! This is a great new sound for her and it shows in her performance. She was much more connected to the audience and you could see she was really enjoying it! The stage looked amazing, the background videos really added to the show and some of the songs actually rocked!
There is a lot to enjoy in this album.A few of the songs seem to have been mixed with too heavy a bass lines and seem distorted. But overall it's worth it to hear this adventure by a true musical genius. I would like to know who the guitarist..is. Some of it sounds like John Pizzarelli with his eight string guitar but that's wild guess. Any ideas...any body? The guitar accompaniment is worth the price of the album alone.
elvis is one lucky guy, diana's fantastic. she can play, sing and is such a pretty woman. one thing i don't care for is the cover of the album...she's too damn good and popular to try and "sell" it with sex.
I agree with popagJazz, it just feels like I'm missing something. I do love the song but seeing it live felt like she was out of sync with the song and trying to find a way to get it together. It's not the era it's from at all but almost as if she was there but not there when they did the recording and creation. She's not synced with it at all just being the voice that carries a note. :/
