Makes a good soundtrack. Loses the appeal if you listen too closely.

I hate this less than most MMJ songs. Five.

Sometimes I enjoy this much production applied to vocals, but these guys' records really do sound like he's singing 10 feet away from the microphone in a gymnasium.
Too droning and mumbly.

Are you getting the feeling that someone at RP likes that echo thang? Neko Case is also played ad nauseum and she really overuses reverb, as though her voice isn't enough. I vote MMJ and Neko off the island!

Sounds a bit like Devendrah Banhart.

 Not "Rhinestone Cowboy" - more like "Gentle On My Mind" or "Galveston," I think. But I can hear the Glen Campbell - or Ricky Nelson - for sure. And that's a good thing. |

Amazingly, there's a bit of Ricky Nelson about.

Nice observation, but actually they recorded in an old silo. So yeah they may have been more than 20ft away from the mic. It's part of MMJ's music that this girl LOVES!  
Just wanted to repost this so those who are still wondering about the production could see why it sounds the way it does... |

Love this song, band, CD, whatever. Everything MMJ - there's a great link of them playing with the boston pops on letterman on the RP "Gideon" page.
If someone has "Dancefloors" please upload it!!!

I bought this CD after several listens on RP. OMG...what is it with the engineering? EVERY songs has the lyrics recorded as if the microphone is at the far end of a huge, empty hall. I can only listen to a few songs at a time...very tiresome. OK, MMJ fans, what gives? Is this just style (the epitome of a Garage Band...literally???). If Z is recorded the same way, Ill pass.  |
