Customer Reviews Australian Bob Dylan In fact, all the Paul Kelly albums are dope. This album is dope. If you like Dylan, image that with a little Paul Simon mixed in. If I were left on a desert island with 10 CDs, this would be one... He is a storyteller, musician, and painter all at once. I bought my first Paul Kelly album in 1988 after reading a review in Rolling Stone and I have been hooked on him ever since. . . creating images in your mind and engaging listeners with his seemingly ordinary but incredibly compelling tales. I own most of Paul Kelly's albums, and I can say without a doubt that this is by far his best work. My favorite song ever is "Careless. " And, see if you can figure out what really happens in the title track, "So Much Water. " This song will leave you guessing. . . What a talented musician! I don't understand why he is not more appreciated here in the US. . Still sounds fresh I can't say how great the tracks sound today, even after 15 years. I recently replaced my long lost tape with this CD version. I recall long drives listening over and over to Paul work his magic. "You Can't Take It With You" and "Careless" are sublime. .
