and first let me apologise for the rather large gap between blogs. Don't worry though this will be a good one as I'm about to rip apart Barbra Streisand's latest attempt at an album.
Hence the title of this blog! (What did you think I meant?) If you weren't aware of the fact Diana Krall is the producer of the album. I illustrate what I think of this album I will transcribe the conversation that Barbra and Diana.
Barbra Streisand: (Answers phone) Hello?
Diana Krall: Hi Barbra, it's Diana Krall.
BS: Oh, I know you, aren't you Elvis Costello's wife?
DK: Well yes, but I also sing very boring, very dull Jazz.
BS: That's right, I read a review of your last album on a blog called Craig's basement.
DK: Well anyway, I was wondering if I could produce your next album?
BS: hmmm, not really.
DK: Oh go on, it will be really good. I think we could make an album just like mine, but with your name on the front.
BS: So I would sing in a really depressed way and not really do anything worth while.
DK: That's right, just like my album. My style will suite your voice anyway, as you're so old now you can't reach those high notes.
BS: Well ok, I think I've got a couple of hours free somewhere.
DK: Oh it won't take that long, we don't want it to sound like we put any effort in to it do we?
So there we are, hope you enjoyed that! I think she might have produced the new portico quartet album too! (Sorry Axl!)
Hopefully it would be to long until the next blog.
Until next time...

Dude, that Barbra Streisand review is one of the best reviews I've ever read.
ReplyDeleteYou are SO wrong about Portico Quartet tho.
