Her performance at the Vanguard almost five decades ago - where she opened for jazz legend Miles Davis -- helped launched her career as a singer and actress that's seen her become the top-selling female recording artist of all time as well as the winner of numerous Oscars, Grammys, Emmys and Golden Globe awards. To date, she's sold over 140 million albums worldwide.

"Love Is The Answer," due Sept. 29 and produced by Diana Krall, will be her first studio album since 2005's "Guilty Pleasures."
