We get a similar plea from Jimmy Buffett's zombies, who show up around those of us actually living in the subtropics for ten days a year to throw up in our gardens and yell songs about relaxing in the streets at three in the morning. How can lameness be so aggressive? |

Can he just keep surfin' and stop to make records ???
the problem is his songs are "nice" , chill, and it always reminds the summer because of the surfer background and the I-like-to-jam-with-my-friends-on-the-beach style music ..
maybe If he could record his voice in a different way, it would be better for him... and for everybody.

true. He is a rather bland musician. My girlfriend says that anytime she sees that album cover she wants to punch JJ in the face. I don't feel quite as strongly as her, but I will settle with giving this a 3. |

I guess since there is no surfing or ocean front beaches upon which to have a campfire in the desert I may never be able to relate to Mr. Johnson's music. But in all fairness, even if I did surf and live near the ocean, I still wouldn't rush out to buy his albums.
