Norah Jones is one of the top selling recording artists of the past 10 years. She is featured in Lucky Magazine's first music issue (August 2012).
I used to belong to an Indian women's discussion forum, in which someone waxed indignant about Norah's alienation from her Indian roots (her father is Pandit Ravi Shankar). I wrote, what positive incentive does Norah have to embrace her Indian roots, given that her father was out of her life during her childhood and youth? To which someone agreed.
On the other hand, Norah is a champion of American music, and this playlist of murder ballads compiled for Lucky demonstrates this. You will need to download the Spotify player to listen. The ads between the songs are irritating, but that's Spotify's business model.
We had hoped to see Norah Jones in concert at Wolf Trap, but the concert was sold out before we could buy tickets. It seemed only right, as we have seen her sister Anoushka Shankar perform live three times - and we got to chat with Anoushka at CD signings following two of the concerts.
