Norah Jones with Sasha Dobson - Home Concerts 8, New York City, 7-10-2020 to 7-23-2020

I have to post more of Norah Jones's home concert recordings, because she keeps coming out with more each week and I'm falling behind! I consider that a good problem. So here's the next in the series.

This one is a bit different from all the others, and is also different from the other ones I haven't posted yet so far. For the first five songs, Jones is joined by a special guest instead of playing totally solo. The guest is Sasha Dobson. Jones, Dobson, and Catherine Popper have made up the band Puss n Boots since 2008, releasing albums in 2014 and 2020. 

The presence of Dobson gives the session a different feel. Of course musically it's different with them playing and singing together. But also, Jones is way more talkative between songs, and more lively. Clearly, she's having a blast. When she plays on her own in these home concerts, she rarely says anything at all.

That's just for the first five songs. The remaining four songs were recorded the next week, and feature Jones on her own, as usual.

Altogether, the music totals up to just 37 minutes.
