Featuring... Norah Jones - CD Review


I am a country girl...
Marc loves a little of everything.
But, he really, REALLY enjoys Norah Jones.
When I had the opportunity to review her newest C.D., I immediately said yes!
I knew Marc would love it...
and I wanted to see what all she had to offer.

Boy, was I blown away!
Norah Jones has an AMAZING voice!
I was totally surprised and now I see why.
I think I might be a bit spoiled now too...
Seeing that this C.D. has her paired up with other artists, I got to experience every side of her!
(Well, at least I feel I did.)

The C.D. track list:

1. Love Me – The Little Willies
2. Virginia Moon – The Foo Fighters featuring Norah Jones
3. Turn Them – Sean Bones featuring Norah Jones
4. Baby It's Cold Outside – Willie Nelson featuring Norah Jones
5. Bull Rider – Norah Jones and Sasha Dobson
6. Ruler Of My Heart – Dirty Dozen Brass Band featuring Norah Jones
7. The Best Part – El Madmo
8. Take Off Your Cool – OutKast featuring Norah Jones
9. Life Is Better – Q-Tip featuring Norah Jones
10. Soon The New Day – Talib Kweli featuring Norah Jones
11. Little Lou, Prophet Jack, Ugly John – Belle & Sebastian featuring Norah Jones
12. Here We Go Again – Ray Charles featuring Norah Jones
13. Loretta – Norah Jones featuring Gillian Welch and David Rawlings
14. Dear John – Ryan Adams featuring Norah Jones
15. Creepin' In – Norah Jones featuring Dolly Parton
16. Court & Spark – Herbie Hancock featuring Norah Jones
17. More Than This – Charlie Hunter featuring Norah Jones
18. Blue Bayou – Norah Jones featuring M. Ward


Of course, I immediately wanted to hear song number 4.
Love me some Willie!
This song was awesome, already knew that...
but mixing Norah Jones and Willie Nelson... Wow!

I was just amazed at the range she was able to do..
From Country with Willie or Dolly...
and then carry over to the R & B artists with Outkast?
Even adding a little Ray Charles to the mix.

Seeing Norah is capable of holding her own, no matter what genre of musical artist she is set with...
I see now that she is one very talented young lady.
I am glad to know that I was able to listen to this...
and share my experience with you.

This would make a great C.D. during the holidays as I feel that it could be played and people of all ages and musical tastes will find a song... (or several!) that they enjoy!

I received this CD for review purposes as part of the One2One Network.

      She has a voice as smooth as butter and she's pretty low key. Don't hear too much crazy stuff about her in the news.
