Editorial Reviews

From Amazon.com
It is not just the timbre of Norah Jones's voice that is mature beyond her 22 years. Her assured phrasing and precise time are more often found in older singers as well. She is instantly recognizable, blending intimations of Billie Holiday and Nina Simone without sounding like anyone but herself. Anyway you slice it, she is a singer to be reckoned with. Her readings of the Hank Williams classic, "Cold Cold Heart" and Hoagy Carmichael's "The Nearness of You" alone are worth the price of the CD. Jones's own material, while not bad, pales a bit next to masterpieces such as these. They might have fared better had she and producer Arif Mardin opted for some livelier arrangements, taking better advantage of brilliant sidemen such as Bill Frisell, Kevin Breit, and Brian Blade; or if the tunes had simply been given less laconic performances. Jones has all the tools; what will come with experience, and some careful listening to artists like J.J. Cale and Shirley Horn, is the knack of remaining low-key without being sleepy--sometimes less is not, in fact, more. --Michael Ross

Chronique amazon.fr
Avec ce premier album, Norah Jones s'impose comme une chanteuse charismatique, digne héritière des aînées Carole King, Rickie Lee Jones, Joni Mitchell et Laura Nyro. Comme ces deux dernières, la jeune Américaine ne veut rien se refuser : entre le jazz (le disque est édité par le label Blue Note), la pop, voire le folk ou la country, elle ne choisit pas, préférant varier les ambiances sans que la cohérence de l'ensemble soit jamais entamée. Pour venir à bout de cette tâche délicate, pas moins de deux producteurs ont été nécessaires. Craig Street apporte son expérience acquise aux côtés d'artistes singuliers (Joe Henry, Cassandra Wilson, Me'Shell Ndegeocello) tandis que Arif Mardin, producteur des œuvres d'Aretha Franklin sur Atlantic, apporte en matière d'arrangements la touche nécessaire à la concrétisation des idées de la chanteuse. Bien qu'il ne s'agisse que de son premier opus, Norah Jones jouissait déjà d'une certaine réputation due à sa participation à l'un des disques du guitariste Charlie Hunter où, en reprenant Nick Drake et Roxy Music, elle révélait toute l'étendue de ses influences. Autour d'un groupe soudé, quelques invités, dont le batteur Brian Blade et le guitariste Bill Frisell, sont venus prêter main-forte. Ce qui domine sur Come Away With Me, c'est la maturité d'un sacré tempérament d'emblée affichée. Et, surtout, une totale authenticité. --Hervé Comte
