Customer Reviews of Norah Jones - Live in New Orleans
Deserving of all the Acclaim! NOTE: There are two extras on this DVD that aren't mentioned on the Amazon.com discription - an encore of "Tennessee Waltz", and the music video for "Come Away With Me"
Norah Jones is one of those great music success stories - blessed with talent (and looks), seriously approach to her art, and knowing of her strong points. All of these factors, and more, come together in this live show.
Recorded at the House Of Blues in October 2002, Norah and "The Very Handsome Band" don't stray too far from what worked so successfully on her incredible debut. Most of the songs from "Come Away With Me" are presented, along with 4 tunes added for this show.
This is a very quiet show, which allows the focus to remain on Norah's gorgeous singing and wonderful piano playing. Favorites like "Don't Know Why", "Nightingale" and "One Flight Down" sound great in a live setting (as if there would be any doubt). If you are a fan of the album, you'll truly enjoy this show.
Of the four new tunes, Norah is at her vocal best on "Bessie Smith", a wonderful blues tune with great drum work by Andrew Burger. "Something Is Calling You" is a beautiful song as well, with an excellent bass line. And the version of "Tennessee Waltz" which Norah uses for an encore sounds much sadder than many versions of this song, but works wonderfully.
This is truly step 2 in the making of a major star - with a new album (supposedly) coming this fall, this DVD makes a nice in-between step for those of us that have been captured by Norah's talent. You won't have a moment's disappointment watching this show, but definitely catch her live this summer if you have a chance.
very good, but i'm not sure about the replay value
This is the sort of DVD that you really only need to listen to in order to enjoy it. This is not a knock on it, but just a comment on the style of music and the presentation of the concert footage. The feature is an hour long performance by Norah at the House of Blues in New Orleans. She has a backing back, but the show is pretty much just Norah at the piano. She does some cover songs as well as stuff from her album "Come Away With Me". She also mentions that some songs are only on her previous EP, which she expects that most people do not have.
If you have listened to her album, you have a pretty good idea what to expect from this DVD. She doesn't talk much between songs, usually only to introduce the next song or to say who she is covering on a song. This may be a good thing if she doesn't have anything interesting to say, it would only detract from the performance. This is a fairly low key performance, but her playing is amazing. Norah Jones is a very gifted musician with a beautiful voice.
The only comment I have in closing is that while I really enjoyed listening (and watching) to this DVD, I don't think it is something that I would watch very often. I'm glad that I rented it, but it isn't worth purchasing (for me).
Want to fall asleep?
Buy this or any Norah Jones CD! Incredibly overrated voice and songs, Norah has been able to sell records because people think she's a breath of fresh air when, in fact, she's as boring as they come. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
