Product Description

Personnel: Jack Jackson (vocals, guitar); Merlo Podlewski (bass); Adam Topol (drums, percussion).
Recorded at Mango Tree, Hawaii.
Something of a slacker renaissance man, prototypical mellow surfer-dude Jack Johnson is not only a BILLBOARD-charting recording artist, but also a world-champion athlete and award-winning documentary filmmaker. On his second full-length album, ON AND ON, the sandy-toed singer/songwriter delivers a bare bones set of acoustic folk rock as soft and soothing as the Hawaiian breezes that serve as his inspiration.
As on his debut disc, BRUSHFIRE FAIRYTALES, Johnson serves up a groovy, yet slightly melancholy stew in his trademark breathy voice, which at its best recalls everyone from Steve Miller to Chet Baker to Evan Dando of The Lemonheads. This time around, however, the vocalist/guitarist isn't afraid to gently stir pinches of reggae, hip-hop, and Harry Belafonte style pop-calypso into his usual hippie jam-band roux. Mario Caldato Jr.'s ultra-sparse, live-sounding production carefully reveals the subtle sadness that lurks behind even Johnson's poppiest tunes, making ON AND ON the perfect album for a midnight beach party on the last night of summer vacation.

極上のサーフミュージックを聞かせるジャックジョンソンですが、彼の音楽はなぜか晴れ渡る空より、雨が良く似合う。ハワイの片田舎、雨宿りした大きな木の下でギター片手に彼が歌ってくれたら、どれだけ気持ちいいだろう。

In Between Dreamsも素晴らしいんだけど、一番肩の力が抜けているこのアルバムが好き。さらりさらりと吹き抜けていく風のようで気持ちがいいです。切ないCocoonにはちょっとホロリ。
