Just Like Buffett

I've heard enough of Jack Johnson's various songs that buying one of his CD's never crossed my mind. But I ran across a decent price for his Sleep Through The Static and I've come to the conclusion that it wouldn't have mattered which one of Johnson's CD's I bought-they all would've sounded the same. Johnson has his tuneful moments and a Greatest Hits album would be all you'd need. He's also one of those artists that you know what you'll get ahead of time. The laid-back vocals and easy-going melodies. With his growing cult he's a '00 Jimmy Buffett. With Buffett you also knew what you were getting when you bought one of his albums. The laid-back vocals and easy-going melodies. Johnson is a new era Soft-Rock artist. At this stage Johnson has yet to pen a classic like "Margaritaville". Years from now when his album sales dry up it won't matter if he sells records anymore. He'll always have his cult, and they'll sell out his shows. Just like Jimmy Buffett.
