But I'm going to see if anyone at the Spanish web site wants to do a cover in Spanish or something. Teresa, te apuntas?

Norah Jones Norah Jones is playing at the Red River Music Hall in Tempe AZ next Sunday, the 28th. See http://www.redrivermusichall.com/upcoming.html for infomation on the concert. Lauree - -----Original Message----- Sender: William Kates Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 9:29 PM 3. Norah Jones - Come Away With Me. The success of this beautiful recording should give Del Amitri some hope. Here's a disc that defies every previous chart trend, and yet has sold very well in the U.S. and, I understand it is top ten in Britain. This record blends jazz, country, blues and pop in a seamless and effortless manner, with Norah handling piano and vocals, with wonderfully understated production by Arif Mardin - his brilliance on this project is that he knew to basically stay out of the way and get a sound on the recording that is much like what she does live. This record should give hope to those naive enough to think that if you make the record you really want to make, and if it is good enough, an audience will find it. Norah may have gotten a little bit of press mileage out of the fact that her father is Ravi Shankar, but there is no apparent influence on her music style. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 21 Jul 2002 19:27:52 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeff Schultz Subject: OV: Last Cheap Shot of the Dream "I will walk away from everything that the world wants me to do I can't look into the future, but the future's where I'm walking to I'm walking toooooo.... I'm walk'in tooooo...." I love how the vocals continue on and on, higher and higher, lofting up to the future. The guitar picking is great, the tape-stopping effect is catchy, and the drum machine fits perfectly. Don't get me wrong - I love Twisted and some of the hard, true rock songs (My recent fav is "I'm an Unbeliever")... but LCSatD and "Belong Belong" are experiments that I welcome. Lyrically this song means alot for where I am right now in my life, and it makes me wonder what inspired Justin to write it. Jeff in NYC Yahoo!

More details on: http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/bbcsessions/dream_ticket.shtml There's a gig on The Tubes on the archive at the moment from Hammersmith Odeon in 1981 - I was there! What a great live group they still are. ------------------------------ End of oppositeview-digest V4 #189 **********************************
