Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Japanese pressing limited edition price for Jack Johnson's 2003 album adds one bonus track. 17 tracks. Def Jam.

Amazon.com:
Jack Johnson has found himself a groove. Indeed, the Hawaiian surfing champion turned alternative pop-folk star really hasn't changed things one iota for his sophomore release. Fans of Brushfire Fairytales should be delighted with the results. The groove is a mellow one--most of the 16 tracks here are semi-acoustic--and that easy-going spirit filters into Johnson's lyrical philosophies. 'What will be will be / And so it goes' he sings on 'Times Like These,' the opening track. Thankfully, Johnson is never too mellow, and there's a 'Don't worry, be happy' vibe to most of his music. 'The Horizon Has Been Defeated' even has a pseudo-reggae feel to it. Although classified as an alternative musician, the singer-songwriter's compositions owe much to past hits. 'Traffic in the Sky' is reminiscent of Jim Croce's 'Operator' and Looking Glass's one-hit-wonder, 'Brandy.' On the splendid 'Taylor,' Johnson sounds an awful lot like Donovan. And 'By The Way' recalls the Lovin' Spoonful. -- Bill Holdship

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I like Jack Johnson
This is great music for anyone who likes groovy acoustic guitar tunes. I always seem to be in a better mood after listening to this and I can't help but tap my foot and sing along.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good CD
Good CD, I enjoy it more at home as background muic than something I would listen to all the time in my car.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jack Johnson
For anyone who is not familiar with jack johnson, On and on is a good place to start. For me its a staple that is always with me. Jack Johnson is the real deal. he pulls no punches and he ain;t fakin it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good When The Mood Hits
The fact that this guy would probably be a hit with John Mayer fans is a blow to this guy, since John Mayer is easily one of the worst hacks making music (no, muzak) today. I was hinted to call this guy a slightly more interesting John Mayer with an acoustic guitar. Sure, it's not deep music, it won't start anything, but it's breezy, chill music (not muzak, thank god). It's definitely worth getting.

The sound of Jack Johnson is a good one, it will definitely relax you. It's a very ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great easy listening
Been a Jack Johnson fan for a few years now, his stuff is great. Makes you want to kick back on the beach with a chair, an umbrella, and possibly an adult beverage and let the worries of the world slip away!
