I still don't understand dick about what's been going on for the last twenty posts or so. Following this thread is like watching Mulholland Drive.

Ooooh... Summer of '98? Wasn't that when "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals came out?

AGH! Yes!

self-titled album actually has good, relaxed playing/tones, and decent flows on it. some good atmospheric moments on the later tracks, like on 'some peoples like that.' nice, dry tremolo on the electric guitar and easy, fluid drumming. also, massively hated on by ILX = worth something in my book.

I've been giggling about "da special sauce" this week, for some reason.

Come on guys

Think of the worst band in the world and then listen to the first two records by G Love. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. He just wants you to be happy!

Plenty of hate upthread -- c'mon; these guys have plenty of fine tunes.

Electric Mile is a fine album that gets my most replays -- most noted is the variety of styles and the always engaging contributions on the Hammond from John Medeski (and far funkier than Dr. John delivered on Yeah, it's that Easy).

As for the "arrogance" everybody seems to be clamoring about, his genesis is rooted in Hip Hop, and self-aggrandizement is a near prerequisite. BFD.

But i understand he's a polarizing figure; hell, his best bud, Jack Johnson one of the most cringe-worthy musicians i've ever heard.
