Now that the twins are singing it - maybe she'll be doing this one in concert again. I for one would love to see it revived - great tune!
This 1996 video from the Montreal Jazz Fest just popped up:

Interesting, she's like 32 years old here--I'm just prowling through all the live videos, interviews, etc., learning more about this muse / goddess of great jazz. I play a bit of piano myself, just enough to understand what she's doing and wow, is she amazing. This video has a ton of big, fast double-handed chords in the piano parts--very different from the speedy runs and the swaying Latin single lines of Live in Rio. She's so flexible on the keys-- the keys give her structure and momentum, her voice gives her sensuality and romance. Do you guys agree?

Yes, I do Artemus, each Diana's album has a bit about her actual life. So she change her way to play and sing (and I think this is a good thing)
