After the 1950s material she recorded for George Clooney's film Good Night, And Good Luck (2005), singer Dianne Reeves thought it was time for a CD of standards again. After she had recharged herself after a period of intensive performance, she went into the studio fresh and fruity for When You Know. Production direction is once again in the hands of her cousin George Duke who was responsible for

Again, Reeves' versions are not an unnecessary luxury, because with her original interpretations and crystal clear voice she knows how to give even the most endlessly covered songs her own twist.
