Lending her sultry voice to “If I Had You,” Diana Krall transforms what would be a standard duet into a conversation befitting for late-night pillow talk. Beginning slowly, the track gradually builds with guitar from guitarist Anthony Wilson until ending with a beautiful piano solo by Krall.

Wow - Tommy LiPuma, Anthony Wilson, Christian McBride... It's almost like a DK album.

Thanks to Diana Krall, I re-discovered Joni Mitchell (Case of you on her Live in Paris dvd)... and it really thrilled me particularly because she performed it at the North Sea Jazz Festival too and during a meet and greet and signing session she was anxious to hear what the fans thought of her version.. well it was and it is still great..

The very typical sound of Willie Nelson (ever since They all went to Mexico with Carlos Santana, another musical hero of mine) is a very good opportunity to hear Norah and Diana again.. She's a great lady.. and everything of her is music.. :)
