\"Diana<\/a>When you are combing the Compact Disc racks looking for Dean Martin<\/em>, you will inevitably run across Diana Krall.<\/em>\u00a0 Her album The Look Of Love <\/em> must have just come out or just won some awards during my Dino acquisition phase. I was seeing this album over and over again.<\/p>\n

At the time, I had not heard of her. I was familiar with many of the songs so I decided to gamble. I figured even if it was very good, the cover was still good to look at. As it turned out, it was a nice collection of loungy songs.<\/p>\n

I’d eventually go on to pick up most of her catalog. She was playing some intimate little venue in Indianapolis around that time. I thought it could be a cool weekend to take my lovely bride to a formal evening of smooth jazz vocals\u00a0but it was winter and between the driving risk and other expenses we decided not to go.<\/p>\n

Diana Krall feels like grown up music to me. It feels like adults in formal attire drinking vodka martinis, shaken not stirred, in an upscale club.<\/p>\n

S’wonderful<\/em>
