    Hi Dan,

    I've got it and (if you like Jack Johnson) think it's a decent album of inoffensive pop music. Production wise it's fine for a commercially produced album (similar to the usual standard if you've got his other stuff), but is far from being 'audiophile grade'

    However it's about the music, innit - unless you're after a 'test disc'..... In that respect, there are far better examples out there, although I normally avoid such things like the plague!
