Norah Jones SACD

Received this in the post this morning. Excellent, had the CD and loved it but first impressions of this hybrid disk is that it is excellent in multichannel and the clarity of the instruments and Norah's voice is something to behold.

Quite a win for SACD I think. Certainly a demo disc showing the formats merits...

Will help SACD's case no doubt, but I'm not a Norah Jones fan

Even after months of forcing myself to listen to the album over & over, can't get past the poor quality lyrics.

I don't mind her album, i have it myself.

The biggest problem i have with it is that is seems very over-produced. And for that reason i imagine its a great candidate for the SACD cause
