 Good....but not as good as "In Between Dreams" or "Curious George"
My friend introduced me to Jack Johnson by playing me "In Between Dreams". After I heard it, I had to have it and went out and bought the cd the next day. I have a couple of kids so I went ahead and also bought the "Curious George" Soundtrack which I also immediately liked after first listening to it. Even though "Static" didn't give me that immediate pleasure I kept listening to it and I have grown fond of that cd even though to me, it doesn't match the greatness of "In Between Dreams". Don't get me wrong...this is a very good cd after repeated listens so don't give up on it. Jack Johnson fans will like it for sure so go ahead and buy it.
Wished it moved me more...
I heard a song from this CD on the radio (public) and liked it. I often order from hearing something on this particular program I was listening to. And most of the time I am really happy with the music, or at least it grows on me over time. This time, I am still trying to have it grow on me. There is nothing wrong with the music; I am just having a blah reaction.
 At this point, it all sounds the same.
I really like Jack Johnson's music and my saying that it all sounds the same isn't a bad thing. He's very dependable in his style and tone and I often listen to his work when I'm trying to relax and have a little time to myself. He's harmless, doesn't demand too much from your senses and just seems to want to keep on grooving, doing the right thing. Those are the things that I love about J.J.'s sound.
The album was made on solar power and the producers went the extra mile with adding the track names to the cd player's LED readout. Albums that cost a lot more to make don't even do that. You can just tell that Johnson believes in what he's doing and loves why he does it. Comes through in every lyric of every song.
It's not the best album I've ever heard, but like I said, it works for what I need it for. "What You Thought You Need" is a fantastic song with an awesome rhythm guitar riff. I recommend this album wholeheartedly but Jackson is an acquired taste. Give him a chance and you might just acquire a taste.
 Creative Songwriter
I have liked Jack Johnson for awhile and am enjoying this CD as much as the others he has released in the past.
He is a good blend of songwriter with interesting style of guitar playing and is one of the consumate singer/songwriters around right now with a blend of surf/acoustic material. When I had heard there was going to be a change up on this record from the past I was hoping it was not going to be a radical change for change sake and lose what I like about him. Fortunately he is still the same.
Just Love Jack Johnson
I have purchased several of Jack Johnson's CDs through Amazon.com and really enjoy listening to his music. When traveling, my husband is always looking for and playing one of these CDs.
