COVERS by the amazing Norah Jones is a collection including some live recordings, some songs from Deluxe Editions, DVD's, others' albums, and previously unreleased work. So much good stuff it's impossible to pick favorites. I've heard her do several versions of Wilco's Jesus, Etc. , and just now listening it's so hauntingly beautiful you can see the skyscrapers moving. Never heard them do it, so her interpretation's the only one I know, in other words, she sort of " owns" these tunes with her graceful use of her god given voice to share this wonderful music with us. Writers from Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Gram Parsons, Tom Waits are some of the names included - Jazz's Horace Silver - Don Gibson's Sweet Dreams, a Patsy Cline hit, but her version, like Fats Domino's My Blue Heaven , are just pure Norah Jones. So with graduations, weddings, birthdays, coming your way, make sure you give the Norah Jones fans in your life a copy of COVERS. Song details including credit to all the incredible musicians are listed for each song, and while her next studio album -sure to feature her "poetry set to music" - is due before the year's over, COVERS might be able to tide you over till then. ( These songs are from her first decade of recording - I've seen some recent photo's - so she must have started mighty early as she can't be more than 27 today )
