Norah Jones: Come Away With Me (EMI Capitol)
Tim Clifford, Rock's Backpages, February 2002
NORAH JONES may not be up there with Wolf J Flywheel in the memorable moniker stakes, but mark it well. Produced by Arif Mardin, this is an astonishingly assured debut. A jazz-inflected, largely acoustic album thats perfect for late nights, Sunday mornings and anytime when you feel the need to chill.
