Great Sounds from the mid-nineties Funny how time changes your perceptions. I picked this up in high school and always liked it but moved it along in one of my cd-selloffs back in the day thinking I had had enough of it. So for some reason I felt compelled to get it back and found it here from one of the amazon sellers. A perfect cd delivered to your door for $4, gotta love the internet. After first listen, it' better than I remembered. I actually like this more than the more popular Dulcinea. There isn't really a killer song here, just a lot of highly melodic compositions, it's easy listening without any of the negative connotations associated with that phrase. My favorites are All in All, Hobbit on the Rocks, Brother, & All She Said. Simply Superb It's a collection of hard to find Toad songs. This album is excellent. Good Intentions is from Friends, Little Heaven from the movie version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Brother is from So I Married an Axe Murderer. So often B-sides and special track CDs fall short of what they are capable of. This one does not. Everytime I listen to this album I remember why Toad was such a great band, even their obscure stuff is awesome and could never be mistaken for anything other than Toad. BTW: Little Heaven is one of the prettiest songs ever. I recommend checking this album out if you are a fan of Toad, or early 90's music. All I Feel I Hope I own all of Toad the Wet Sprocket official releases. I truly enjoy this whole cd. I have never been disappointed by any of there releases. Still, I do have which one of their releases are my favorites. This cd is one of the favorites. . . if anything for the track "Hope. " A beautifully haunting ethereal song which I enjoy playing on those cloudy rainy days. Great lyrics, great musicianship, and great artistry. Great work from these guys. . . . Well done!!! . Another great album from a great band Underrated is the word for this band. . and this album doesn't dissapoint! Great songwriting, and a great voice and musicianship! Makes me miss the early 90's as well!! . miss early 90's Toad summs up early 90's alternative music for me. I miss the early 90's. This album is my second fav from them.
