  • A direct descendant from the pedigree of one of the 20th century's virtuosos, Norah Jones might not be on such a lofty artistic level as her dad Ravi Shankar, but certainly inherited some musical intuition from him. With nary a sitar nor raga within earshot, the young newcomer sounds very much an assimilated, western, 21st century pop-jazz singer. One thing that separates her from the pack is Ms. Jones' own piano stylings--not flashy, but deftly doubling or echoing her voice--that discreetly act as the glue holding together these airy, delicate, and beautiful arrangements.
  • But the centerpiece is certainly the 22-year-old's confident-beyond-her-years vocal delivery in addition to a precise diction and velvety tone. Shades of Nina Simone, vintage Phoebe Snow, and a less beatnik Rickie Lee Jones are evident throughout as the young siren coolly sashays through mostly new material by guitarist-songwriter Jesse Harris (formerly of Once Blue) and a few choice covers. Veteran producer Arif Mardin frames a most notable debut with a translucent touch, and appearances by jazz heroes Bill Frisell and Brian Blade gild the lily.

Suberb work from an excellent songwriter and singer. I own this and the Sunrise album.I love both. They are prefect for listening at the end of a long day, or to relax to in the car. 5 stars from me!

I have to disagree with most of the other reviews! Norah Jones music defiately isn't dance/party music but there is a very subtle and beautiful quality to both her voice and music that is just stunning! perfect to listen to at any sort of intergenerational event or as background music at a dinner. It's soft it's understated and it's beautiful!

This is a great album to just chill out to on a sunday afternoon. I always have it in my car stereo and listen to it on my way to work. It just puts me in such a great mood! I love all of the tracks on the album and i just think that Norah Jones has a really really beautiful voice. I absolutely love it! definately recommended!

What's that episode of The Young Ones?

Oh, yeah.

"Bored".

Having recently listened to Fiona Apple, another episode of The Young Ones could describe this.

"Bomb."

In the movie release, not explosive sense, of course.

Terribly, terribly, terribly dull. Horribly dull. Lift music. Incredibly dull. Not quite painfull dull, or excruciatingly dull though, thankfully.

yuk cant stand norah jones with her whiney as voice whihc really gets on my nerves. i find her to really be unbearable, and her tunes long, boring and al together too similar for my liking. i find adults really lap this up though, as the easy listening tunes are right up their alley.
