Album Review
Mandy Khoshnevisan
Reviewed 2003-11-17
Cool laidback jazzy, bluesy, indie-rocky. Beachy guitars, some brass, some saxes, some organ. Groovy. Tracks sound fairly different from each other. I like this. All but #10 are instrumental.

1. (5:11) funky laid-back midtempo groove with beachy guitar, trumpet and tenor sax solos
*2. (6:20) cool downtempo, bass, bell-like guitar, electric-instrument jazz, picks up energy.
*3. (6:42) strutting downtempo bluesy, dirty muted trumpet solo and others.
4. (7:09) slow, electric guitary thinking; picks up a soft chugging tempo, builds
*5. (4:52) fast, samba-y—with subtle zydeco-sound pump organ and noodling guitar
6. (5:59) slow; quiet melding chords, then love-song guitars, becomes a pretty waltz.
7. (6:58) slow no-tempo start, ocean-y; becomes mellow groove w/ sax and brass.
8. (4:49) funkadelic, with some sassy dissonance.
*9. (4:00) fast percussion, emphatic cymbals, with laidback organ and bell-guitar strums. Unusual fast/slow sound.
10. (4:56) laidback groove, slidy guitars, slow wistful cover of “will you still love me tomorrow”; vocals by Norah Jones, with harmonies.
