NEW VINYL LP ON VERVE RECORDS 2015

2 X 180 GRAM VINYL

Diana Krall’s first studio outing since she and husband Elvis Costello became the proud parents of twin boys, 2009’s QUIET NIGHTS finds the jazz singer/pianist turning in a serene and pleasantly subdued set. Krall breezes through a few bossa nova standards, most notably “The Girl from Ipanema” (here gender-reversed to “The Boy…”) and the title track (originally “Corcovado”), both penned by the legendary Antonio Carlos Jobim. QUIET NIGHTS isn’t solely a Brazilian-themed outing, however, as Krall also spends plenty of time in the comfortable realm of the Great American Songbook, offering up elegant orchestral renditions of “I’ve Grown Accustomed to His Face” and the Bacharach/David gem “Walk On By” that benefit from her supremely smoky vocals and graceful delivery.
