ALTROK Ordinals 37

Midnight Oil - Capricornia (Liquid8)
Jeff says: Australia’s smartest musical export (lead singer Peter Garrett is a lawyer and just barely lost when running for a seat in Australian Parliament.) This is their first US release in a number of years.
 
Norah Jones - Come Away With Me (Blue Note)
Jeff says: 22 damn years old. Born in NYC, grew up in Texas and is now Brooklyn-based. She blends elements of jazz, soul, country, folk, and pop.
