For years singer pianist Diana Krall has been bringing new lifeblood to jazz through her dual knockout talents. And while her later recordings reveal a consistently maturing artist, this 1992 debut album shows that the Nanaimo, British Columbia, native had the goods right from the get go. In her mid 20s here, Krall sings with honesty, subtlety, and persuasion while playing the piano with head shaking authority, both as accompanist she offers amazing asides in between vocal phrases and as an absolutely A one improviser. Indeed, it is remarkable to hear her weave her gifts into a wondrous whole. Working with bass ace John Clayton and the superb drummer Jeff Hamilton, Krall presents one winner after another. "This Can't Be Love" is typical, a selection where it is all but impossible not to tap your foot. After a nicely enunciated vocal she slides into phrases much like Sarah Vaughan the pianist cooks in her Oscar Peterson-meets Gene Harris style, playing hip ideas that fall easily on the ear, underwritten by her rock solid feel for time. "As Long as I Live" is another example of Krall's ability to sing and swing a standard with a nonstop groove. "Straighten Up and Fly Right" is slower and features a deeply bluesy vocal; "I'm Just a Lucky So and So" is equally sultry. The classic ballad "Body and Soul" finds her singing with intimacy and playing with a caressing touch. This is a very impressive start for a very impressive artist.
