    What's especially daring about Not Too Late is the degree to which Jones and [producer Lee] Alexander trust their songs and her languorous voice to hold the listener's interest. [Feb 2007, p.75]

    The majority of Not Too Late hums with a placid darkness and neurosis which is as delicious as it is unexpected. [Feb 2007, p.104]

    This collection of quaint, feel-good numbers is not going to set the world alight, but it offers something warm and comforting to come home to.

    Norah's most personal collection of songs to date.

    A little too much guitar and not enough piano. I know she was trying something new and for that she is to be commended but sticking to what worked so well on the previous albums would have been a better choice.… Expand

    Nora's silky jazz voice is wasted on simplistic and immature notions put to lyrics. Such a sophisticated and talented voice is betrayed by too much sophmoric prattle.… Expand
