Canadian jazz star Diana Krall joins guest host Daniel Richler to talk aboutWallflower, her new album of smoky, velvet contralto covers. The record combines Krall's jazz instincts with producer David Foster's pop savvy, and features duets with Michael Bublé and Bryan Adams
There's power in Krall's deep, resonant sound -- but also mystery, a hint of tragedy, and a current of raw sexuality. The artist shares her approach to interpreting pop classics, why she doesn't write more of her own music, and how her personal life dictates which songs she's willing to perform.
