Norah Jones

I just had my first listen.....(hard to judge with only one listen) ...but I like it a lot.  All the musicians are excellent...done with great taste.  The sound is disappointing (I have a vinyl edition).  I'm using a VPI Superscoutmaster/rim drive/classic platter/3D arm/Ortofon Winfield....the sonics are D+.  ...the same as her other releases.  Too bad...otherwise the record is very good indeed.  (by the way...it sounds better with no antiskate.)

Well, the full album dropped on Spotify sometime last week and I've listened to it a couple of times this weekend.  I didn't think the sound was awful.  A few of the tracks sound a bit fuzzy or murky but they're not unlistenable by any means.  I also don't think it sounds "like" Come Away with Me except for the fact that Norah sounds like Norah.  I like the addition of the sax which is not an instrument she's used much in the past.  I don't find it boring (but then I liked her earlier releases) and I'll probably buy the CD or the download.

I'll check Spotify for sound quality....may be better than vinyl

Wow stringreen, a D+ for the vinyl? You should really listen to the CD then. Maybe they overcooked the vinyl?
But like you, I like the music on this album as well.

I'll get the CD from the library and compare....
