Advantages: fantastic voice and a chilled out feel Disadvantages: maybe too laid back in places
There is a familiar concept banded around in musical circles known as… "The difficult second album". It is a phenomenon that rightly haunts many artists and there is good reason for it. Imagine you are a band or artist struggling round the circuit for years writing your material as your own whim and desire takes you, testing those songs in front of live audiences for years and then one day it happens, the contract is signed, the studio is booked ... ...very little, the problem arises a year later when the men in the suits call a meeting with you to say they want a follow up album that pushes you even further into the public eye, a few more singles like the last ones and a worthy follow up to the debut album. Now you have to replicate in a matter of months for this album what it was that you spent years over for the first album. Hence the concept of a difficult second album. Often in a rush to follow ...
Advantages: Some outstanding tracks. Disadvantages: Some rubbish.
Norah Jones - Come away with me
This album cost me a princely sum of 50p from Barnsley Sunday Market. The album, released in 2002 is still riding high in the jazz charts, and the only track I had heard prior to buying this album was 'Don't know why' which is certainly in the jazz style of ballads, and she has a jazzy voice to match. Five Grammy's, twenty million plus sales, this has gotta be a cracking album right?
Coupled with the fact that she ... ...no life. 0/10.

What this song essentially does is tells a dreamy longing by someone. Not my usual type of song, yet, there is something about the guitar work again, Asian and jazz influenced that makes me really like this, and her vocals really are quite ...
Advantages: piano skills Disadvantages: piano solos too long
Jamie never fails to amaze me. His vocal preformance on this album is really good and unique. His piano playing is really great, however, most of the piano solos are too long in my opinion and it gets a bit boring to the point where you have to switch song. Apart from that, the album is really relaxing. It has a mix of different types of jazz music and some of the songs are like ballad types and up-tempo types. They are really catchy and you will ...
This is a greatest hits album of sorts, so it’s no surprise that when this was in my CD player I didn’t skip a single track. If you remember the songs from the “When Harry Met Sally” soundtrack, you’ll know a few of the songs on this CD. Anyone who loves big band or jazz music can’t afford to be without “Forever For Now.” Harry Connick, Jr.’s vocals are on top form and you can almost feel the energy of the band when the music is playing. One of my ...
