ROCK/FUNK/JAM. Musical gold from 'Nawlins, with a bit of jam band/alt rock feel. Great choruses, funky and beautiful horn licks, very tight drumming. Strong male lead vocalist David Shaw (haha). I love it all. Disc 2 is all live, all loud, all great jams. RIYL Dave Matthews, Dr. John, TV on the Radio?

Disc 1:

1.****(3:13) Med. Pretty guitar and sax melodies. Swaying beat.
2.****(4:10) Med. Funkier, grittier. Minor key. Hip-hop drum beat?
3.****(4:22) Slow. Great songwriting, slow-groove funky jamming.
4.minor FCC(Goddamn)***(4:07) Med. Soft intro. Drums come in 1:20.
5.***(3:57) Faster. Poppy. Optimistic lyrics.
6.****(5:12) Faster, upbeat, driving. Intense chorus.
7.*****(3:39) Synth, great chorus. Dynamic. So damn good.
8.*****(4:59) Kinda delayed intro. Really catchy. Really rich arrangement.
9.****(4:42) Sweet, slow, soft.
10.*****(6:34) Vocals @ :56. Just more great rock. Driving.

Disc 2 (LIVE):

1.***(7:59) Upbeat. Straight up rock.
2.****(6:04) Funky/bluesy/jazzy/rock? Loud.
3.*****(5:05) Live version of Disc 1:3. Better? Dirty sax solo.
4.(FCC "fuck")***(8:44) Slow. Raggae rhythm almost. Almost rap too.
5.****(7:38) Slow. Lamenting. Great rock jam.
6.(FCC "shit")*****(8:15) Awesome sax solo, dynamic.
7.*****(9:15) Solid slow love song. EPIC.
8.****(6:19) Live version of Disc 1:6. Better version! SONG ENDS 5:30!
