@stringreen I like the singles I've heard on Spotify.  Waiting to hear the whole album before I buy but I agree with @jafant that pretty much everything she's done is worthwhile.
Well, the full album dropped on Spotify sometime last week and I've listened to it a couple of times this weekend.  I didn't think the sound was awful.  A few of the tracks sound a bit fuzzy or murky but they're not unlistenable by any means.  I also don't think it sounds "like" Come Away with Me except for the fact that Norah sounds like Norah.  I like the addition of the sax which is not an instrument she's used much in the past.  I don't find it boring (but then I liked her earlier releases) and I'll probably buy the CD or the download.
@wolf_garcia Yes, that's a better way to describe it.  To me it didn't sound like every track was that way but when I heard the first track I was like "Oh my."  After a couple of listens I think I'm getting more used to it but the first track still sounds different than most of the album.
