Overview: A Vintage Dive into Early 20th-Century Music

Glad Rag Doll is the stunning and deeply personal 2012 album from Canadian jazz icon Diana Krall. Produced by the masterful T Bone Burnett, this recording is a delightful exploration of jazz standards and Tin Pan Alley songs from the 1920s and 30s. The album features a collection of rarely recorded gems that Krall discovered in her father’s 78-rpm record collection, including the title track, "Glad Rag Doll," and "I'm a Little Mixed Up." The music maintains a vintage, rootsy feel—far from a typical big-band sound—highlighting Krall’s intimate vocals and signature piano style, alongside a unique band configuration. It’s an ideal album for fans of early American popular music, vocal jazz, and those looking for a unique, nostalgic take on classic material.

Interesting Facts: The Personal Touch of T Bone Burnett

Glad Rag Doll marks a stylistic departure for Diana Krall, showcasing a raw, almost bluesy side to her piano playing and vocals, inspired by the sound of the vintage 78-rpm records she grew up with. Producer T Bone Burnett, known for his work with artists like Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, shaped the album’s distinct, pre-war acoustic sound, stripping away the typical lush orchestrations of modern jazz. The album cover itself features a photograph of Diana Krall in period costume, channeling the glamorous yet slightly rebellious spirit of the flapper era. The songs explore themes of love, loss, and female independence, connecting the emotional depth of these rarely heard standards to contemporary sentiments.
