just discovered Jack Johnson

[robphelan]

his music is great :music:

I heard it first in the animated move 'Curious George' a few years ago, but recently put 2 and 2 together ...

he's almost like a modern jimmy buffet

 

[djheater]

I'm a huge fan of guitarist\singer-songwriters and Jack Johnson is pretty great.
Ben Harper is excellent as well
So's Cat Power, Songs Ohia and Bon Iver for that matter.

I need more than a guitar and soft words. especially when talking about shit like pancakes

i like to chill, so i dont need more most of the time, but i listen to lots of things

jack johnson is good
keller williams is worth a listen, more eclectic but has lots of chill stuff

I heart Jack Johnson, discovered on XM radio, now own nearly every CD he's made. Good stuff-- it's so soothing. He would def be part of my dream concert.

Actually my wife turned me on to him. 😀

 

[robphelan]

yeah... i just checked to see if he's touring.. but he's not right now... and i'd doubt he'd come to san antonio - maybe austin, though...

yeah I have every one of his cd's including most of his live stuff and bootlegs too. I have it because everyone else seems to like it. I just don't get it. It's more boring than relaxing to me. ::Shrugs::

Banana Pancakes sir! :|

 

[ConstipatedVigilante]

He has some nice stuff, but IMO most of it's too soft. I like my music to have some punch.

 

[gorcorps]

If you think HE'S good you should check out John Jackson

 

[rbV5]

Perfect change of pace for me. I listen to JJ when I need to relax and chill a bit....aways works.

 

[DAPUNISHER]

My wifey loves the guy, but he puts me to sleep.

 

[bignateyk]

Tom O'Leary is better

 

[nageov3t]

dude, let's go kick the hacky sack around and listen to some dave matthews.

 

[Rockinacoustic]

Dude lives in Hawaii smoking pot and surfing all the time. It's amazing he makes any music.

[SAWYER]

I have been listening to from from the start. IMO Donavon Frankenreiter/Ben Harper>Jack Johnson

I highly suggest watching the Abbey Road Sessions of Donavon Frankenreiter and seeing Ben Harper live.

 

[maddogchen]

besides Upside Down, which of his songs do you guys recommend to listen to first?

 

[Synomenon]

Listen to:

Good People
If I Had Eyes
Flake
Bubble Toes


Those have been his most popular songs (aside from Upside Down).

 

[Fenixgoon]

what about bitter political rival john jackson? </futurama>

I'm against those things that everybody hates!

 

[uli2000]

Just be careful if you get invited over to listen to Jack Johnson.
