August 20, 2010 8:46 AM ET
Over the last decade, Norah Jones has become known for her ace collaborations with everyone from the Foo Fighters to Ray Charles. Now, the singer-songwriter will collect her best duets on a new disc titled …Featuring, which hits stores November 2nd. The disc features Jones' collaborations with the Willie Nelson, OutKast, Talib Kweli, Dolly Parton, Ryan Adams, M. Ward and more. (Full track listing below.) Also included: the new track "Little Lou, Ugly Jack, Prophet John," which Jones cut with Belle and Sebastian for the Scottish group's forthcoming fall album. "It's so exciting and flattering and fun when I get asked to sing with somebody that I admire," Jones said in a statement. "It takes you a little bit out of your comfort zone when you're doing something with another artist. You don't know what to expect — it's kind of like being a little kid and having a playdate."

Jones will spend the rest of the summer on the road for the west coast leg of her tour before reuniting with Willie Nelson at Farm Aid on October 2nd in Milwaukee, WI. Jones is also slated to appear on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on August 31st.

“Tonight's the Night”

The Shirelles | 1960

The lead cut and title track from this girl group's debut album, "Tonight's the Night" was written by 19-year-old bandmember Shirley Owens, who sings lead, and producer Luther Dixon. The band from Passaic, New Jersey met in high school, first calling themselves the Pequellos. The song's frank thoughts about sexual and emotional surrender was racy for the time, but that didn't stop the Chiffons from cutting a similar version immediately after the original came out. "We were the first female group to write some of our own material," band member Beverly Lee recalls. "We did have some say-so in our writing."
