. . . pipes!
Man, can that girl sing! I happened to come across her CD while on my recent business trip in Kuwait. Jeezus, she’s just a kickass jazz singer. Reminds me of one of those sultry gown-wearin, piano-mounting, microphone-loving godesses ya only see in the movies.
I think “Popsicle Toes” has to be my favorite. What a great song.

I wouldn’t mind her serenading me to sleep in person, neither.
She does the kind of stuff that you just don’t get anyplace else anymore. That’s enough to make her worth anybody’s time. But on top of that, they never let you forget that she’s tall, blonde and extremely leggy.
Just listening to her do such…pleasurable things to the microphone is well worth the price of the CD. It makes me real happy that the wife has “The Look of Love” as one of her current selections in her car’s CD player.
Don’t even get me started about her pics on the CD notes.

She’s quite beautiful, though her latest tv ads make her look vapid. Her singing is derivative, boring, predictable, monotonous. I’m sure that there are better jazz female vocalists alive today, perhaps even some who don’t consider themselves stars.
i agree with mood indigo. shes all right, but im not sure why everyone is so crazy about her. her nat king cole schtick is kinda boring after a while.
abbie lincoln (the queen), nancy wilson, nina simone, cassandra wilson, deedee bridgewater, dianne reeves, wesla whitfield are all alive and are all more interesting than ms krall.
and she couldnt hold betty’s jock, nor sarah’s, carmen’s, ella’s, et al.
her guitar player, russell malone, on the other hand, is shred-a-listic. saw him with gary burton and others and he just smoked.
Me, too. The Sebring commercial really gets under my skin, because I distinctly remember Krall whining about how people/the media fixated on her looks rather than her skills as a musician. Uh, sure; next she’ll claim she’s not a girl, not yet a woman.
I enjoy her work. She’s got a good delivery and a good set of chops on the piano. That being said, tickets to her Kennedy Center show are $145 and I’m not paying that to see her.
