Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

In The Girl in the Other Room, singer and pianist Diana Krall changes direction by interpreting modern standards by Tom Waits, Mose Allison and Joni Mitchell, as well as compositions by her and her new husband, Elvis Costello. Krall's jazz piano credentials come through loud and clear on her Count Basie-styled version of Bonnie Raitt's "Love Me Like a Man", but it's the collaborations with her spouse that reveal untapped emotional nuances in her velvet voice; many are reminiscent of Bill Evans's moody, impressionistic pieces. The title track, as well as "Narrow Daylight", "Abandoned Masquerade", and "I'm Coming Through" deals with love and loss. "Departure Bay", a picturesque ode to her hometown of Nanaimo, BC, proves that this is the start of something big, and that two heads--and hearts--are better than one. --Eugene Holley, Jr, Amazon.com

CD Description

Seventh solo studio album from sultry Canadian jazz chanteuse, and her first to feature original material - she co-wrote half of the album's songs with husband Elvis Costello. A reaction against her typecasting as a "jazz singer", this also features covers of popular tunes by Joni Mitchell, Mose Allison and Tom Waits, recast in a dark, melancholy, musicallyarticulate style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Back on track after the shambolic 'Look of Love', 21 Feb 2006

By	H. C. D. Sargent "captainwibble" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Reading the other reviews of this album I guess people fall into two camps. Those who hated the comercialised, over orchestrated, no piano, souless offering that was 'Look of Love' will love this tighter, more minimal, altogether more satisfying offering. Those who liked having Ms Krall's sexy alto voice swamped with swirling violins will probably hate this album. Even the album photography distinguishes itself from the aforementioned aberation, no strappy stilletos and short skirts here! It would seem that record label executives have finally worked out who she is; a musician not a pop diva.

I cannot express how glad I was to hear this album, with tight stark arrangements of piano, bass and drums occassionally joined by other instruments. Her takes on some "non-jazz" material are refreshing and very enjoyable, and the original material already sounds like classics.

More of the same please!

5.0 out of 5 stars Diana "unplugged", 26 April 2004

By	T-Elch "WSV" - See all my reviews

"The girl in the other room" is Diana Krall's "Unplugged" or"Stripped"-album. After the honeysuckle-sweet last albums, which wereflattered by big band arrangements the beautiful Canadian pianist hasworked her way back to the roots. Working with a comparativelyminimalistic band (hammond-organ, guitar, drums, bass and herself at thepiano), she wrote most of the songs either herself or in collaborationwith her husband Elvis Costello this time. And this is exactly thestrength and power of this CD: the new songs are full of poetic momentsand say what's got to be said in a nutshell. There is no longer a wholeorchestra between the lyrics and the music, but Diana ist much moreimmediate, much more personal than ever before. The influence of theingenuous songwriter Costello can be noticed and yet the songs are a 100%Diana Krall's songs and of course it is still jazz trickling from thespeakers, but it is jazz that has found ist roots again. "The girl in theother room", this is also the "other" Diana Krall who now sings her songsat the piano without make-up and without polish. Titles such as "I'vechanged my address" or "Abandoned Masquerades" reflect on this.
A greatachievement of the couple Krall/MacManus - which is by the way Costello'sreal name - and funnily enough the main creadits on the sleeve go to a MrDeclan MacManus. To redefine yourself in such a cinvincing manner at thepeak of your career - that is truly amazing and deserves the highestpraise.
My personal favourites: "Narrow daylights", "Almost Blue" and"Departure Bay".

5.0 out of 5 stars Cannot understand some reviews, 29 May 2005

By A Customer

I cannot understand how anybody can give this album one star. Even if the songs and the mix are not to your taste it is inconceivable that it only warrants one star. I have almost all of DK's albums and can honestly say this is one of the most evocative, mood conjuring albums you are likely to come across.
How anybody can fail to appreciate, for instance, the mind blowing Narrow Daylight is beyond me.

For anybody who is wondering whether to buy this, ignore the critics - don't hesitate - it is simply brilliant.
