The Best of Dianne Reeves

[ Blue Note Records / CD ]

Release Date: Monday 4 March 2002

Superb collection of songs spanning her brilliant career

During the same decade that saw the passing of so many great female jazz vocalists - Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae, Ella Fitzgerald, Betty Carter and others - a handful of new singers arrived in the 90's to carry the torch into the future

One of the most significant singers to come into her own in the last 10 years is Dianne Reeves

She has released several Blue Note albums that not only exhibited her expansive border-crossing musical interests but also established her as an artist intent on developing her voice

'The Best Of Dianne Reeves' is a superb collection of 13 songs spanning her brilliant career. Two of the tunes have never been released in the U.S before: Dianne's stunning take on Joni Mitchell's 'River' and a sublime rendition of the Johnny Burke-Erroll Garner classic 'Misty'

Dianne performed 'Fascinating Rhythm' at the Winter Olympics 2002 closing ceremony to an estimated worldwide viewing audience well in excess of 1 billion people!
