Details: Amazon.ca The Best of Dianne Reeves summarises vocalist Dianne Reeves's greatest hits from 1987 to 2001. Reeves was one of the best jazz-based singers to emerge in the late 20th century. Of course her biggest hit, "Better Days" (aka "The Grandma Song"), is included here. Reeves's love of Latin music shines through on her folkloric version of Mongo Santamaria's "Afro-Blue" and her ballad artistry illuminates "You Taught my Heart to Sing". Reeves's soul-wrenching composition "Endangered Species" shows off her spiritual side and "Testify" showcases her uplifting aura. Also included are Reeves's passionate reading of Joni Mitchell's "River" and a heartfelt version of "Misty". Add pianists and keyboard-players Billy Childs, Mulgrew Miller and George Duke, and you have a complete aural portrait of Dianne Reeves. --Eugene Holley, Jr.
