"Stepping Out: launched the career of one of our
generation’s greatest Jazz artists. “Diana Krall’s 1993 debut shows that she
had the goods right from the get-go. 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.” (Zan Stewart). The Justin Time Essentials
Collection introduces the album to a new generation of fans, but this time with
an added bonus track from the original sessions – Diana’s incredible
arrangement of "Summertime”.
“Stepping Out" a lansat cariera unui artist de jazz dintre cei mai mari ai generatiei de azi.
Albumul de debut al Dianei Krall, din 1993, ne arata ca avea tot ce era necesar
pentru a incepe si a se lansa. Krall canta cu onestitate, subtil si persuasiv in
timp ce canta si la pian scuturand capul cu autoritate, ambele ca acompaniator -
ea ofera si uimitoare parti intre frazele vocale – ca un improvizator de nota
10.” (Zan Stewart). Colectia “Justin Time Essentials” prezinta acest album noii
generatii de fani ai jazz-ului, dar de aceasta data cu un cantec bonus din
sesiunea originala, incredibilul aranjament al Dianei pentru “Summertime”.
