About
<i>Love Scenes</i> continues with the same instrumentation (and popular acclaim) as Krall's Nat "King" Cole tribute <i>All for You</i>, her previous breakthrough album from 1996. Here, the Nanaimo, B.C., native employs the classic Cole trio format, both singing and playing piano herself. Formidable guitarist Russell Malone returns, with first-call double bassist Christian McBride aboard for these sessions. With a wider selection of songs at her disposal, Krall performs ones that she’s since made her own: a concert favorite, Dave Frishberg’s “Peel Me a Grape” (with Malone’s now-trademark guitar effect after the "Pop me a cork” line) was once the late Blossom Dearie’s, but it's now co-owned by the two. “I Don't Know Enough About You” and “You’re Getting to Be a Habit with Me” dazzlingly showcase all four interlocking instruments, while the artful restraint exercised on “Gentle Rain” is emotionally all-encompassing.
