Norah Jones a tinge short


I love female vocals, Kd Lange, Linda Rondstat, Bonnie Ryatte to name a few. And I love Norah Jones voice, So I ran out and purchased come away with me. Though I could easily listen to it, I was a tad dissapointed in the reocording quality on CD. I could hear her mic shean (glare), tinny and a tad thin, which kept her wonderful voice from ringing clear through my Theil 3.6s. I tried some Sheryl Crow bam she was right there in my living room. I tried the Norah CD again and the sound thined and tinned. I was saddend, anybody else share this same opinion, or dissagree?

Question: Do women singers ever sing anything but love songs???? (yes, it's a serious question). I cannot see the appeal of listening to women singing love songs OTHER than fidelity/soundstage/recording quality/etc.

...yeah sure they do more than just sing ballads...plenty of great girls out there - not all of them are stereotypical crooners!
You looking for a female vocalist that's worthy of audiophiles? Nnenna Freelon is not well known nor does she have the big marketing machine behind her. She's very much under-appreciated. Her huge talent and ability is without question as a female vocalist (in jazz as well as generally). It still amazes and confounds me that she gets so little acknowledgement here. Maybe it's because she doesn't have a big label and marketing machine behind her. For me, she ranks right up there with the best of the modern female vocalists. I've seen her live and have her recordings. She's the anti-one note.
