20 years ago on February 26, 2002, Blue Note released an album by an unknown 22-year-old singer, songwriter, and pianist, Come Away With Me, the debut album by Norah Jones. The album reached #1 in 20 countries, selling nearly 30 million copies, and sweeping the 2003 GRAMMY Awards with eight wins including Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist.
On April 29th, Blue Note will release Come Away With Me: 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition, a 44-track collection that reveals the full story of the making of this album. In addition to a remaster of the original album, which was produced by Arif Mardin, the Super Deluxe Edition also includes 22 previously unreleased tracks including the original demos that Jones submitted to Blue Note, the complete First Session demos she made after being signed, and the first version of the album that Jones made at Allaire Studios with producer Craig Street, most of which has never been heard before.
