The Fall

Norah has taken a new direction on the The Fall, experimenting with different sounds and a new set of collaborators, including Jacquire King, a noted producer and engineer who has worked with Kings of Leon, Tom Waits and Modest Mouse. Jones enlisted several songwriting collaborators, including Ryan Adams and Okkervil River's Will Sheff, as well as her frequent partners Jesse Harris & 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). The first single/video is for the album's lead track 'Chasing Pirates'. read more..

Definitely one of my favorite albums of the year. by A. Pack
On first listen (or just to the 30 second samples) one might not be to impressed with this album from Norah Jones. But on further listening, one can tell that this is definitely one of her strongest albums. All great artists explore different avenues. And she does this incredibly well. Just because 'The Fall' is not exactly what you are expecting to hear with Jones, she nails it. It has a much "rockier" sound. She doesn't use the piano as much as on her earlier albums. It's something new and exciting for her. And personally I loved it. It may take a couple listens, but it's well worth it.
