Norah Jones

The album that Djones is talking about is the Peter Malick Group, featuring Norah Jones and is titled "New York City". I agree, it is very good. One of my favorites.

Another newish album is "...featuring Norah Jones". It has most of the songs she has done with other people. Very diverse range and style of music on this.

Dorkwad...thanks for the recommendation of the Herbie Hancock album. I just ordered it.

Agree with Djones; The Norah Jones-Peter Malick "New York" City is my favorite.

I'm also a fan but understand why some people might not like her. I find her music beautiful and soothing. Love her when she plays the Hammond... that is just butter. And she is very easy to look at... could have the best lips in the biz.

Now, for her acting, hmmm...

Thanks Dorkwad for the "The Joni Letter" recommendation. Being a big fan of Joni maybe this can connect me to Norah in a small way. Coincidentally I just had a few buddies over to listen this morning/afternoon and one brought the first Norah cd. We listened to the first three cuts and funny thing is of the four of us listening, two get her and two don't.

On "Come Away With Me" Nora is listed as writer on 2 tracks and co-writer on 1 track out of the 14 tracks on the album. If this qualifies her as writing most of her material, I must live in a different world as the rest of you. So be it. Anyway, it doesn't really matter. Careers come and go.

Her and Diana Krall strike me as different flavors of the same ice cream.
