Is The Fall a good place to start with Norah Jones?

Yes, The Fall is recommended as a starting point for new Norah Jones listeners. A blend of introspective lyrics and smooth melodies that gracefully traverse jazz, folk, and blues influences. Released in 2009, 'The Fall' was Norah Jones' fourth studio album, following her commercially successful album 'Feels Like Home'. At this point in her career, she was exploring more diverse sounds and different production approaches, marking a shift from her earlier, more traditional jazz roots toward a more eclectic style.

The Fall works well if you're into steady, consistent energy levels, introspective late-night reflections and gradual builds and payoffs.
