    any of her CD's or DVD's would be good... but DK live in Paris is a great DVD from 2002

    one of my fave CD's of her's though is The Look OF Love.. because of the Burt Bacharach cover she does... i'm a big Bacharach fan.
    PolkFest 2012, who's going>?

    +1. It's hard to go wrong with any of her CD's. I think I have all of them plus the Live in Paris DVD as well. They are all very listenable.

    They are all great. The first may be the weakest but still very good.

    Diana + Orchestra: "The Look of Love" (My fav)

    Diana Live: "Live in Paris"

    Diana singing Temptation: "The Girl in the Other Room"

    Diana singing Boulevard of Broken Dreams: "All for You: A Dedication to the Nat King Cole Trio"

    The album that crossed over to mainstream (imho): "When I Look in Your Eyes"

    One of the best Christmas jazz album: "Christmas Songs"

    "Love Scenes" is okay.

    I don't have her new Best Of album.

    Enjoy

    Edit: Forgot. Live in Paris DVD is always. (DTS)

    I remember when i met Bill Dudleston (from Legacy-Audio fame) in Grand Rapids some years back when he was promoting the Whisper loudspeaker. They played a cd of Diana Krall. There were no words to express what that recording did to/for me. They were using their own monoblocks but i can't remember what the transport was. You could place everyone in the recording in the soundstage. The sound was EXCELLENT. I don't any of the names of her cd's but whatever they played at that moment was magical

    I'd have to say that her first album Steppin' Out is one of my favorites. I'm also a big fan of When I Look in Your Eyes.
