Sexy and Sophisticated, Norah Jones' Come Away With Me is Not to be Missed

Pros A beautiful voice, delicate piano playing, and some good tunes to boot!
Cons Three tempos: Slow, slower, and slowest.
Recommended it? Yes

Norah who? Who are you, and why haven't I heard of you already? Seriously, this 23-year-old wunderkind just kind of shows up out of nowhere with a debut video on MTV2 that literally knocks my socks off and makes me rethink my self-imposed musical boundaries, and I'm supposed to think that it's her...

A Word On Jazz Music

I think jazz music is an acquired taste. Because the majority of music listeners are not accustomed to hearing the melodies of jazz vocalists and musicians it can be a bit hard to digest for someone who typically listens to popular music or even myself who listens... Read full review »

Taking a Trip


As you place this c.d. in your stereo. You sit and listen and feel as though you are suddenly taking a trip to the past. As if in a blink of an eye, you now find yourself in an old caboret style restaurant, dim lights and all. Sitting with a drink in one hand and... Read full review »

Norah Jones Brings Class Back in the Age of X-Stina

Pros A Beautiful & Mesmerizing Debut from Norah Jones.
Cons The Overabudance of Ballads Might Be Too Much For Some.
Recommended it? Yes


Throughout the past few years in popular music, the concept of a great female artist has been smashed into bits and lost a sense of respectability thanks in large part to teen-pop singers like Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, and Christina Aguilera. In early 2002, there has finally been a... Read full review »

Pros Jazz + Pop, Jazz + Folk = Sweet!
Cons Jazz + Gospel, Jazz + Old-School Country = A few sour notes.
Recommended it? Yes

The word of the day is "chanteuse". Can you say that with me? "Chaaaan-TEUSE." I knew you could do it!

I don't know why, but when discussing the hot young sensation known as Norah Jones, critics always feel the need to use the word "chanteuse". That word and her name were forever bound... Read full review »

The Nearness of Norah Jones

Pros lovely, sensual vocals
Cons needs more styles of song
Recommended it? Yes

I have to admit to being skeptical when this disc first came out. I began to read a lot of buzz about a new jazz singer that was setting the world on fire. Fearing that Diana Krall would get jealous if I took a shine to a younger jazz singer kept me at away. But the buzz kept growing. Friends that... Read full review »

A Sultry Invitation That's Hard to Refuse

Pros The album offers a great sound that can be hard to find these days.
Cons The songs all start to feel the same. could use more variety.
Recommended it? Yes

I have to admit, I'm a sucker for the underdog. I prefer to patronize the small, local shop instead of the national chain when I can. I love the movies where the little guy comes out of nowhere to save the day. At a baseball game, I'll gladly switch my allegiance to whichever team is behind (unless... Read full review »

Pros Substance, style, grace. A striking debut.
Cons Not for fans of the loud and the gaudy.
Recommended it? Yes

Substance in the Age of Britney
In this age where personal piercings are more important to image than sheer talent, it would not be surprising if Norah Jones was easily overlooked by lovers of today?s teen-age focused music scene. But that would be their loss.

Though her position on... Read full review »

Pros Several of the tracks are ok, and enjoyable.
Cons Alas, too much of it sounds exactly the same as the next cut.
Recommended it? No

I really wanted to like this cd. I really did. Especially after a friend of mine recommended it to me. Young Norah Jones swept the Grammy awards this year, blending up a mix of blues, country, and a bit of jazz to give us something different, if not perfect.

I can see why this artist is... Read full review »

Pros She successfully blends vital elements of jazz, country and folk.
Cons The entire album is mellow, if that can be considered a drawback.
Recommended it? Yes

Forgive me my loyal fans (Smile)if this review seems a little brief, but Norah Jones, and Come Away With Me defy description. It is one of those musical journeys you must take yourself to understand.

I have chosen simply to give you a synopsis of her sound, and my opinion of the CD... Read full review »
