Jack Johnson -- On and On

Dr. Funkenstein · 06-08-2003, 06:50 PM

Jack Johnson -- Vocals/Guitar
Adam Topol -- Drums/Percussion
Merlo Podlewski -- Bass

That's it. No synth, no funky production tricks, no background electronica...just a guy on a guitar, a guy with a bass and a guy with drums playing mellow acoustic songs. Despite being mellow, almost lethargic, from beginning to end, there isn't a single point where it's boring. Catchy hooks, intelligent lyrics and interesting guitar work follow you through the entire album. 16 songs, most under 3 minutes in length, and every one worth listening to.

Recommend "(#2) The Horizon Has Been Defeated", "(#4) Taylor" and "(#13) Rodeo Clowns" which was originally recorded by G.Love and Special Sauce, was written by Jack Johnson and appears here in an acoustic version.

Kind of like Dave Matthews, but much better I think. Awesome guitar stuff.
