Summary Last.fm: Dianne Reeves, born 23 October 1956 in Detroit, Michigan, is an American jazz singer, known more for her live performances than her albums. Alongside her peers Dee Dee Bridgewater, Diana Krall and Cassandra Wilson she is considered one of the most important female jazz singers of our time. She lives in Denver (Colorado/USA) Dianne came from a very musical family. Her father, who died when she was two years old, was also a singer. Her mother, Vada Swanson, played trumpet. A cousin, George Duke is a well known piano and keyboard player and producer.
Has deservedly been hoisted on high as one of the top five jazz voices in the decade of the 2000s. Her four Grammy Awards and her music from the movie soundtrack solidified ' upper-echelon placement. Showcases material going off into the shallow end of the pool, away from legitimate jazz, and covering languid and lush pop songs., who has over-produced many a recording in his time, is not quite in the realm of or, but he has done more than his share to give an orchestrated backdrop to sing songs she likes. While it's good that the setting is acoustic, thanks to a string quartet and the guitar of, it seems the vocalist could do these tunes just as well without them. Then again, who displays a picture-perfect instrument, has more often than not straddled the commercial line, and has freely crossed over it.
This should not be much of a surprise to anyone. Her most impressive straight jazz cover, 'Social Call' sports a second-chorus extrapolated lyric over the -styled electric guitar of. There's nothing phony or pretentious about this one.
A Little Moonlight
'Windmills of Your Mind' has an interesting modal arrangement within a waltz framework. 'Once I Loved' is done nicely, but as in the case of the remainder of the other selections, lacks energy and originality.
A light funk version of 'Midnight Sun' does not compare favorably to 's classic version, and 's 'Lovin' You' should be left alone except for those who wish to sleep and snooze to it. Is the shining light of the session, heard on nine tracks in his own inimitable, passionate, classy manner.
Most indulgent is 'Today Will Be a Good Day,' a rock shuffle with 's bluesy R&B guitar resembling something might have done in the '80s. A disappointing project, it's a lazy, trite repeat of worn-out material as opposed to creating pathways for new ways of expression or reinventing great standards.
