  • Summary: Matthews' first collaboration with producer Glen Ballard (who has produced albums by Alanis Morissette, No Doubt, and Wilson Phillips) results in a collection of shorter, more focused tracks than DMB fans may be accustomed to.

    I'm a big DMB fan, but when I listened to this album for the first time, I was deeply dissappointed. It just lacks their usual intensity, density and complexity, etc. Ballard's arrangements obviously don't work that well for the DMB sound.… Expand
