Norah Jones The Fall on Hybrid SACD

Re-mastered from the Original Source Recordings by Kevin Gray at Cohearant Audio!

Part of Blue Note/Analogue Productions’ Reissue Campaign of the Norah Jones Solo Catalog!

Also Available on 200g LP

Norah Jones is the rare artist who has combined widespread critical acclaim with immense commercial success, winning nine Grammy Awards and selling 40 million albums in just a decade, while collaborating with artists from across the spectrum from jazz to hip hop, rock to country! Her pitch perfect voice combined with her choice of the finest musicians along with top-flight producers such as Arif Mardin, Danger Mouse and Jacquire King have made her releases go-to demonstration discs for audiophile stereo systems.

Now ten years into her already impressive career, she is releasing her fifth studio album Little Broken Hearts, produced by and co-written with five-time Producer of the Year Grammy nominee Danger Mouse, and to celebrate, Blue Note Records and Analogue Productions are collaborating to re-issue her entire catalog on audiophile 200g LP and Hybrid SACD editions.

The Hybrid SACD editions of the five albums, 2002's Come Away With Me, 2004's Feels Like Home, 2007's Not Too Late, 2009's The Fall and Norah's new album Little Broken Hearts, have all been re-mastered from the original sources by Kevin Gray at Cohearant Audio.

Norah Jones went in new directions on her fourth full-length, The Fall (2009), experimenting with different sounds and a new set of collaborators, including Jacquire King, a noted producer and engineer who had worked with Kings of Leon, Tom Waits and Modest Mouse among others. During the 13-song set, Jones ditches the gentle piano playing of her predecessors and tears into fresh, beat-savvy arrangements, playing plenty of electric guitar and exploring the piercing quality of the Wurlitzer electric piano.

Jones’ smoky voice and soulful veneer highlight the opening track and first single, "Chasing Pirates" while a slinky kind of ambience is dislplayed on "Light As a Feather (co-written with Ryan Adams). The social commentary of "It’s Gonna Be" offers a garage-rock attitude, and "You’ve Ruined Me" has a rich Americana flavor. But Jones is still a little bit country ("Tell Yer Mama") and a little bit rock ’n’ roll ("Stuck"). "Overall," writes reviewer Gary Graff, "Jones straddles those lines in an entirely different manner than she ever has before."

For The Fall, Jones enlisted several songwriting collaborators, including Ryan Adams and Okkervil River’s Will Sheff, as well as her frequent partners Jesse Harris and Richard Julian. Musicians include drummers Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M.) and James Gadson (Bill Withers), keyboardist James Poyser (Erykah Badu, Al Green) and guitarists Marc Ribot (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello) and Smokey Hormel (Johnny Cash, Joe Strummer).
