I was going to write a big review using descriptors like derivitive and poor modern copy of... but lets just get down to it.
While the harmonies of multiple voices are nice the leads voice is not pleasant on its own. Everything sounds like stolen bits of old songs by the Beach Boys and Neil Young mashed together and I dont mean that in a complimentary way.
I guess this strikes a chord if you like a more modern version of the california folk pop of the mid to late 60s or if you were too young to have really heard any of it. No new ground is being broken here and there is no need for this on a list that could contain the vast options of music available.

This is VERY of its time and genre. Nothing really stands out other than the big single everyone that was alive at that time has heard a million times.

I dont see why this is on this list, but everyone has different taste.

This isnt bad, I wish 2.5 was available to rank as that would mean its average without being good or bad. It just is.

My favorite thing about people that get high is that they cant shut the fuck up about getting high.
I have no idea why anyone would think this is essential listening unless they are just super pumped about weed or they REALLY love reggae.
I fit into neither category.
The truly wild part about all of the above is this is no where near the bottom of the barrel on this journey.
2 stars

Lets start with this, these are clearly very gifted musicians AND I love broken tempo time changes (prog).
But, I REEEEEAAAAAALLLLLLY do not care for this gentlemans voice. Also, being a gifted musician doesnt mean that arrangement and songwritting are always of equal measure.
I can see why someone would love the complex and challenging nature of this and in all honesty I probably would enjoy this more if there was someone else singing.
2 stars is too harsh, 3 stars is giving too much. Ugh

Im not saying its bad, its just not for me.
