5.0 out of 5 stars excellent transcription, November 9, 2006

By	C. Boyce (New Jersey) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Diana Krall's "Girl in the other room" is an excellent album. Miss Krall departs from previous stylings to try her hand at songwriting (many cowritten with husband Elvis Costello). Her playing and singing are top-notch, while the band is fantastic. Although the album was unpopular with some traditional Krall fans used to her previous jazz standards approach, this work has also attracted a new whole new group of fans.

The transcription of the piano, voice, and sometimes guitar and bass are well done. Many of the slower originals are thoughtful and introspective, while the blues covers (Stop this World, Love me like a man) really rock. It should be noted that due to the complexity of Diana Krall's playing, this book is for the advanced player. However, it's also a rare insight into the playing of an amazing jazz and blues player.

5.0 out of 5 stars The piano is great., December 16, 2009

I really liked "Love Me Like a Man" and "Stop This World". The sheet music to these tunes is fun to follow as I listen to the CD. I'm trying to practice the way she does it on the piano. ...Probably will take me a decade to master it. She is quite a jazz piano player. (Cute, too) (:-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Original Krall solos, January 6, 2008

By	Beverly J. Groth - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Diana Krall piano score of "The Girl In the Other Room" is heads above any score I've had in the past. It used material that includes solos Krall really plays on her recording. It's challenging and so much better than the watered down versions! Good product.
