Diana Krall's Love Scenes, available for the first time on vinyl at 45 rpm. Grammy nominated, the album features Diana's mastery of the romantic ballad in an intimate piano trio setting with Russell Malone on guitar and Christian McBride on bass.
"When my producer, Tommy LiPuma, and I were deciding on the songs for my newest album, it never occurred to me that the songs we ultimately chose would be all about love. I selected songs that I personally liked, and that had a special meaning for me. However, as is often the case during the creative process, a connection among the songs just seemed to organically appear. The songs are indeed about romance. But to me there is a broader and more personal attachment to each of the songs than the standard definition of romantic love might imply. I think that these songs represent the strength of love, including the love of family and friends. But rather than describing my own thoughts about each song, it is my hope that all of you who listen to the music and read the lyrics will discover and imagine your own personal "love scenes" among the mountains, oceans, rain and gardens of these songs." - Diana Krall
"Teamed in a trio with her regular guitarist Russell Malone and bassist Christian McBride, Krall here mostly emphasizes ballads having something to do with love. She is at her best on 'I Don't Know Enough About You,' 'I Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance With You,' and 'How Deep Is the Ocean.'" - Scott Yanow, allmusic.com
An absolutely fantastic recording in the ultimate version, which also more than justifies the high price in terms of manufacturing quality. - Ralf Henke, LP, edition 2/2017
The songs, superbly captured by the recording expert Al Schmitt, seem even more airy, fragrant and lively, revealing nonchalant shades that remain vague at a slower pace. An exclusive dream for connoisseurs and therefore unfortunately worth every euro. - Matthias Böde, STEREO, issue 1/2017
