There are many factors that make this happen - good company (obviously), great presents (materialistically), fine food and drink and a great soundtrack that sets the mood, and adds a happy lift to the house. For a few years now one of the soundtracks ... ...He is at his best when swinging out a great tune and he gets plenty of opportunity with the range of tracks on this album. It is amazing to listen to such a strong, mature singing voice and realise that he was only 26 when he recorded this album.

It still baffles me as to why the alternates were not on a separate disc from the originals. Even for me, a hardened fan of the genre, it makes for difficult listening if you using an old fashioned CD player. This is a wonderful and comprehensive archive but unfortunately does not work as a listening experience ...
...stronger with every listen. Feels Like Home with The Handsome Band and special guests. I am a big fan of Norah Jones. Her first album, Come Away with Me was an absolute classic. The album was certified diamond by the RIAA on February 15, 2005 having sold over 10 million copies in its first three years of release.

It sold a million copies in the first week of its U.S. release, the first album to do so since Britney Spears' Oops!... I Did It Again (2000) and it was the second best-selling album of 2004, with about 4 million copies sold. It sold 1,920,000 copies on its first week worldwide.
