who the hell listens to this dull, uninspiring excuse for music, it basically consists of a complete TW**!, wandering around strumming nonsensical 'happy' tunes about absolutely nothing, I just dont get it but I suppose its a measure of how completey inane and pointless the current music scene is.

Used Price: £4.50

I'll get straight to the point here: very, very boring and samey. Ordinary to the max. Die-hard JJ lovers will probably lap it up, but others - myself included - who expected something a little more hype-worthy and out-of-the-ordinary, will be left with a kind of blank "Oh, so that's it" expression on their faces if they didn't pay for it, and a sour taste in their mouths if they did. Try before you buy.

I bought this recently being a newish fan of Jack Johnson (yes I admit, I'd only heard of him when In Between Dreams came out) but this album pushes that to one side and offers far more songs that are each original, relaxing and catchy. It doesn't have the grabbers like In Between Dreams's 'Sitting, Waiting, Wishing' or 'Better Together' but it does have far more of an uncommercial tone about it which is what I think is attracting more people to buy the less known albums now.

I'd highly recommend it if your just looking for something nice to chill out with that's very well written.

I'm a big fan of acoustic-based singer/songwriter stuff, so I thought I might like Jack Johnson too. And at first I did. His music is laid back, quite catchy, softly sung, undemanding. Anybody would like it, I guess. But after a while I started to find this CD a bit annoying. When you listen over and over to something really good, it reveals things you didn't see the first few times you played it. But all that's revealed here is a rather `lite' and one-dimensional approach to songwriting and arranging. Lyrics that sound cute at first soon sound empty. It's okay on whimsical songs like `Sexy Plexi', but when he tries to be more serious it doesn't hit the mark. And you may soon tire, as I did, of the crack of the drum that accompanies every song, ... Read More:

Other reviews will tell you of the close links (well documented with this double disc) of the light music pieces on this splendid compilation with famous radio and television shows of the (our? certainly my)past. What they don't mention is that a lot of these recordings have simply not been available to the public, but came from music publishers catalogues and CDs (the Bosworth discs are good).
The source material is superb here, the quality fantastic...
These are discs to be sought and savoured.

They truly do not compose or perform music like this any more.

It has been said in most of the other reviews but im gonna get my say too!

Stick with 'bushfire fairytales', 'inbetween dreams' and 'on and on'. They are all great. Unfortunately Jack was way ahead of the other artists on this album.

7.Curious George: Sing-A-Longs and Lullabies by: Jack Johnson and Friends

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Music : Curious George: Sing-A-Longs and Lullabies
I've read a lot of reviews of this album that really pick out the "Sesame Street" element! Just remember that this IS a soundtrack to a kids' animated film & you'll be fine with it! There are 3 or 4 child friendly tracks, all pretty funky (how can Money Mark not be?!), but these are spread amongst some beautiful new Jack Johnson songs that wouldn't be out of place on any of his releases. Mix this with excellent collaborations with the likes of the brilliant Ben Harper, G Love et al - & it's really a good album! Don't listen to the cynics just enjoy!!

If you like any of these artists, you should buy it. There are some great interactions between these artists more noted for their solo work.
