Quiz by Sharon Michiko Yoneda

artist:  Diana Krall

songwriters:  Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry 

release date:  2001 by Diana Krall


Released by Verve on September 18, 2001, "The Look Of Love" – a sumptuous collection of languorous, string-laden ballads and sultry bossa nova – found Krall, then 36, reuniting with Grammy-winning veteran producer, the late Tommy LiPuma, who had worked with the singer since 1995 and helmed her previous three LPs. “We have six years of trust and are at the point where we can say anything to each other,” recalled Krall in 2001, describing her symbiotic relationship with LiPuma, whose numerous credits included George Benson, Al Jarreau, Randy Crawford, Barbra Streisand, and Paul McCartney. “I can say anything to him and he can say anything to me. We respect each other. It’s probably the best working relationship I’ve ever had.”
