Review by Dan:

I bought Hawaiian Jack Johnson's 3rd release in New Zealand at the start of their winter, after hearing “Sitting, Waiting, Wishing” on the radio. Jack gives the impression that these 3 activities are exactly what he spends his time doing, slapping lightly away at his acoustic guitar, and putting you at ease with his dulcet tones. A sun kissed, relaxed collection of very simple music, life’s a breeze for Jack as he gently massages “Banana Pancakes”, and brings in an accordion on “Belle”. “Constellations” is perhaps best listened to gazing up at a starry night – it’s quite romantic in a way. ‘It’s always better when we’re together’ croons Jack – after a hot, stressful day at work, I came home, put this album on the stereo, and definitely found it better that me and Jack were together.
