The Look Of Love by Diana Krall.
Diana Krall delivers transformative artistry in this essential recording.
Musical Analysis:
Diana Krall leads with distinctive artistry, creating intricate interplay between musicians. The harmonic progressions and rhythm section showcase the evolution of jazz with spontaneous brilliance.
Album Story:
At age 36, Diana Krall entered the hallowed halls of London Symphony Orchestra and the famed studio spaces of Capitol Studios to record her sixth studio album. The project was produced by the veteran Tommy LiPuma — a trusted collaborator — and engineered by the legendary Al Schmitt.
Krall and LiPuma began with a list of some 25 possible songs, recorded vocals + piano first, then selected the final 10. The title track — “The Look of Love” (written by Burt Bacharach & Hal David) — was the newest song in the set, and Krall transformed it into a sultry bossa-nova style, backed by big strings.
The album topped the Canadian Albums Chart and earned Krall major awards — including a Grammy for engineering and a Juno Award for Album of the Year in Canada. It’s a lush, romantic ride: Krall on piano and vocals, supported by bass, drums, guitars, full orchestra, transporting you into a late-night lounge world.
Pressing Details:
Double pocket gatefold jacket with plain rice paper inner sleeves and a double-sided insert for "Verve Impulse! Acoustic Sounds Series".
A sound quality issue was identified on the second LP leading to a recall around a month after release. Purchases with the issue bought from Acoustic Sounds were advised that a replacement of the second LP would be sent within 2 months but apparently they only started shipping from late February 2025.
