Free Music Review: A throw-back to good ol' family folk music
Hit: 5 Stars
Like many of the negative reviewers here, I, too, was surprised at this CD. I was expecting the same folksy blues as his other albums.
But this CD is wonderful in its own way. This is happy family music, which goes back to the roots of folk music. It's stuff with a strong values, a good message, that's easy to sing along (whether with children, or maybe you just need a smile).
I had to post this review in defense of this CD. No, it's not my favorite Keb Mo. But when I need a smile, I pop in this CD. This is not impressive music from a technical/artistic perspective - his wife and kids sing (and even his grandmother, I think). But this is such a gem - it's charming in its own way.
Sure, I wish I'd known in advance what to expect ... but now that I have the CD, I'm glad I can pull it out whenever I feel "blue" or need to sing along with something. This could have easily been a Disney soundtrack.
Just because it's different doesn't make it bad, folks. I love that Keb Mo shows us a personal side, and now, will even share his family with us. This CD isn't for everybody, but I believe it's a great expression of personal and cultural diversity through music. I don't have anything negative to say about it.
