Product Overview
Norah Jones has been a warm voice of comfort and reassurance for nearly 20 years since her cozy 2002 debut, Come Away with Me. The 9x GRAMMY-winning artist presents the Deluxe Edition 2LP of her 2021 holiday album, I Dream of Christmas. It features the original album of timeless seasonal favorites and profound originals, plus an extra disc of 11 bonus tracks and live recordings from her 2021 livestream concert from the Observatory at the Empire State Building.
This collection of timeless seasonal favorites includes ("White Christmas," "Winter Wonderland," "Christmas Time Is Here") and new originals that explore the complicated emotions of the past year and our hopes that this holiday season will be full of joy and togetherness.
The original studio album was produced by Leon Michels and features an excellent cast of musicians including Blade on drums, Tony Scherr and Nick Movshon on bass, Russ Pahl on pedal steel guitar, Marika Hughes on cello, Dave Guy on trumpet, Raymond Mason on trombone, and Michels on saxophone, flute, percussion, and more.
"When I was trying to figure out which direction to take, the original songs started popping in my head," Jones explained. "They were all about trying to find the joys of Christmas, catching that spark, that feeling of love and inclusion that I was longing for during the rest of the year. Then there are all the classics that have that special nostalgia that can hit you no matter who or where you are in life. It was hard to narrow down, but I picked favorite classics that I knew I could make my own."
