Product Details


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

Product Reviews


(5 stars) - Jack Johnson Rocks
I love Jack Johnson's music! I can buy any CD that he has out no matter what the release date from Amazon.com. Amazon has very affordable prices, better than Wal-Mart! My product was brand new and in perfect condition when it arrived. Thanks!!

(5 stars) - love jack johnson
was a fan after curious george and have come to realize his talent goes far beyond fun children's music.. his laid back vibe and feel good lyrics have a way of adding tender therapy to the music soul..

love this, fast ship, great stuff



(5 stars) - My favorite Jack Johnson
Jack Johnson has become one of my favorite artists. Perhaps it's my mellowing with age, but I find his music bothcalms and cheers me up. I enjoy music that I can sing along with- at least a little bit and after a couple of listens to his CDs I usually can.

If you're someone who needs deep meaning in your music or artists that are obviously troubled, then Jack Johnson is probably not for you. However, if you want a CD that you can throw in and leave in for a while, I think he's the answer.

I do like all of his CDs, but this is my favorite. I do have to add that I may be biased on this one as it was one of the CDs we brought to the hospital to play when I had my son, so it has some major sentimental value to me. That said, we never felt the need to change it for the many hours we were in the delivery room and it was a perfect mix of happy and soothing for the occasion!
