    Some are already calling it a landmark. This year's 'Deserter's Songs' or 'Soft Bulletin'. In truth it's probably better than both of those records.

    It's a record of passion and richness, with a hoard of memorable songs, that demands to be treated the equal of its inspirations. [Sep 2003, p.102]

    In all, My Morning Jacket may be a journey through the past, but it's also a solid step into something rock & roll has been missing for an awfully long time in the mainstream arena: melody, extremely catchy and well-written songs that aren't afraid of the mainstream, and a love of the great pop continuum that translates into something new.

    This record is lousy! I bought it because it was marked wrong at Best Buy ($3.99) and I'd seen a lot of good reviews. But the songs are all plodding and go on way too long! The production is terrible too, each song sounding as if it was recorded in an airplane hanger. Or at the other end of a big tunnel. The singer's high plaintive whine may give some people a roots Americana buzz, like the Band but worse (and the Band wasn't very good IMHO)... I barely made it through this cd. So dull. … Expand
