Norah Jones on lead vocals as the Little Willies cover Dolly Parton. Meanwhile Jim Campilongo goes crazy with his Telecaster. Taken from a March 2006 live performance at the Living Room in New York.

Update! A studio version of this song will be released in 2012 on the Little Willies' upcoming second album, "For the Good Times."

  • I hope the Little Willies record again, despite the breakup. Doubtful though.

  • @mouthcorner back when they did a month-long-secret-residency in November '08 at the living room, norah and richard were talking about putting together a little willies holiday album (yes, that would have been delightfully hilarious).

    but obviously it doesn't look like that happened...we'll see what happens this winter, typically these things tend to pick up when "everyone" is not busy with touring/recording/etc. but the whole LES scene just doesn't seem to be the same anymore......

  • @mouthcorner An update! Out of the blue (as is everything with Norah and her friends), the Little Willies have recorded a new album! It was mixed this past May. No idea when it'll be released, but watch this space for more information.

  • holy stoplight Batman!

    how about i send you the edited version of that photo so people can enjoy my favorite "Jolene" without specially filtered eye-wear?

    of course Norah will tell you that no one can top the original, but she hangs out with Dolly whose irresistible charms are a matter of public record.

    p.s. who recorded this?

  • jonathan

    i love pretty much everything youve blessed us die hards with (namely photographic evidence that certain groups were more than just rumors and legends), i dunno if i can edit the video w/o taking it down though?

    as for who recorded this, it was taped by xm; thus the professional sbd quality.

    keep snapping away, as i love your work. thanks for everything.

  • Bonne journée!

  • Wish this was a video of them. Norah and Dolly are both great. They should sing a duet!

  • asowm

  • I would just kick Jolene's ass.

  • i thought Mindy Smiths version of Jolene was good, but i have to say Norah's is great!!! way to go, always loved this song..

  • Wow, another amazingbut different version of this song...I love it!

  • Good change of pace, with good musical backup in the back: guitar.

  • I love Dolly's version, but this one is great too. Norah Jones is excellent and the musicians too !

  • norah really captures the essence of dolly's intentions in her cover.
