Aside from her duet with Ryan Adams on Jacksonville City Nights, “Dear John,” I can’t say I’ve listened to much Norah Jones over the years. Now that Marc Ribot, my favorite living guitarist, Joey Waronker, of Thom Yorke’s still nameless supergroup, and James Gadson (Bill Withers) are on her new record, it’s time to give Norah a second chance.
NPR is offering a perfect opportunity to do just that, as they are streaming Jones’ upcoming album The Fall in its entirety, including “Light As a Feather,” which was co-written by our favorite Internet-addicted singer/songwriter Ryan Adams. “We’ll separate our things to put us back together,” Jones sings in what sounds to me like an Adams-penned lyric.
