    Classic Jack -- Excellent

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 27, 2005 | 13 out of 15 found this In Between Dreams review helpful

    Pros: Quiet funk, beautiful inlay

    Cons: won't be a commercial success after the initial rush

    Jack Johnson is a genius. The cool, quiet stud from Hawaii has once again produced an album with soft, warm undertones, which operate behind sad and happy (and in some cases meaningless) lyrics. He has a style which I like to refer to as "quiet ...funk" there is just such a groove in the music he writes and the way he sings his songs. I don't think however that it will be a commercial success, because for those who were not blessed with the ability to observe and interpret, the songs on this album will be passed off as "achingly similar" to those on on & on, but this is not the case. I have to cut this short because I'm going to learn all the songs on my guitar. I highly recommend it. Read more Less

    Good follow on

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 2, 2005 | 4 out of 4 found this In Between Dreams review helpful

    Pros: Great variety

    Cons: Very short in duration

    This is a good follow on to his previous album - "On and On". The album has a great flow with a great mix of acoustic and electric cuts. Quite notable are "Banana Pancakes" and "Staple it Together". The only downside is ...that is quite short in duration. There is a total of 14 songs and the total length of the CD is 41:02.

    Pros: Highly groovable. Another dependable JJ collection

    Cons: Not long enough!

    Jack has done it again! He never fails to put out music that is ultra-groovable, breezy, and just plain chill. His music always makes me smile even on the worst of dayz. I love his laid back vibe. Better Together and Banana Pancakes are two of my fav...orite tracks. Can't wait til he comes back to the Bay Area for a live show! Read more Less

    Pros: Got that laid back Jack Johnson Vibe, that always makes you feel good.

    Cons: Not a risk taker. The same sound on 3 cd's can wear on you after awhile

    I love this album. i was hoping for a little bit of a "different sound". something to surprise me. it didn't quite do that, but it was exactly what I expected. Jack Johnson flows, with sounds that let you do what you do and relax a whil...e. Go get this cd, grab a cold beer, and enjoi! Read more Less

    Pros: delighted rhythm and lyrics

    Cons: it's not easy to like it from the first time

    This is the latest album of him. This guy is quite a silent person, I think. The lyrics are simple but tell a lot. We can find a simple-but-not-simple love in his words. Maybe it's his real feelings 'bout his wife, his life and his love. Try ...his songs and you'll find them delighted Read more Less

    JJ Gets a little Funky

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 24, 2005

    Pros: Good bass lines, More upbeat than previous work

    Cons: Some of the last songs on the album don't seem to fit

    I disagree with some of the earlier reviewers who said this would not be a commercial success (already proven wrong). I find this album to be the most popish and commercial that he's done. It's more upbeat, got more pronounced bass lines, and... even a little steel drum thrown in. I like it the best of his albums. Looking forward to seeing him live in September (sure have to buy tickets early these days). Read more Less

    Great new twist on his classic style

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 12, 2005

    Pros: A refreshing new hawaii-type sound that is still just as fun to listen to as his past cali records

    Cons: none

    Jack Johnson is one of the best artists around today. The style of this new album is definetly a reflection on his environment. This album was recorded in Hawaii as opposed to California like the last 2 records. He plays the ukelele on some tracks wh...ich gives out a really laid back/chilled vibe. This cd is a lot of fun to listen to and I encourage everyone to check it out! Read more Less
