Anoushka Shankar & Karsh Kale feat. Norah Jones – Easy [2007]

One of the reasons I absolutely love KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic is because I usually wind up getting surprised by tracks I would normally have never even entertained. Take this track for example, the fact that Nora Jones is tied to it would usually force me running in the other direction. Never been that big a fan of her Singer/Songwriter wailing. HOWEVER, Shanka & Kale just knock the melody out of the park with this one, very sedate and atmospheric, it helps blend down Jones’ vocals to the point where the whole track sounds fantastic. Not my usual cup of tea, I will admit but the melody just gets you in the chest and wont let go. Taken from the 2007 album Breathing Under Water, an album I am currently downloading to my ipod 😀
