O’s Notes: Twenty-two years old Norah Jones makes a promising debut on Blue Note with 14 songs many, her own compositions. Her style is a combination of country-western and folk with some threads of jazz. Her soft vocals glide gently over the music. Producer Arif Mardin shapes the performance well and surfaces the potential for Jones to create a presence in jazz space.
