Where am I.......2002-04-27

Recently I had a friend that made me go to see the band in question at a show. I truly went with an open mind. But now my mind is confused. Who are these people that are fans? Who listens to this kind of music? BB's reggae sounds like the reggae you get when you push the reggae button on a casio keyboard. The drum fills sound like what you get when you press the fill button and the endings sound like the, well you get the point. This music is for senior citizens. Like a commercial for a sea cruise as everyone plays shuffleboard and wears unflattering clothes. But their crowd is diverse and just as confused as are the motives for playing this music. Songs about the anti-parental land of Amsterdam? are we still in high school when that was the land of milk and honey? apparently the frats and poser hippies don't care about the quality. it's not wrong to just have fun and play goofy music but it seems to be a sin when some (not all) of the band has potential for more. Save your money on this one

if I could have only one c.d. while stranded on an island..........2002-01-17

this c.d. is amazing. anyone who says anything otherwise is ignorant. the band is also awesome live.

Excellent Stuff.......2002-01-01

This is an amazing cd, full of great tunes. Although brent berry does not stay true in the reggae sense, many of the songs have the reggae beat and sound. This cd has a very good mix of music that just makes you feel happy when you hear it. GREAT CD!!!

not great or GOOD.......2001-11-29

I would like to say that it is okay to rate an album on the lack of a message and I would also like to say that it is okay to rate an album on the image the performers try to convey. I, unfortunately live in Brent's hometown and his cd and message and band is just as superficial as he is. If the cover of the cd wasn't egocentrical enough, his show flyers would make any rastafarian weep. There are always great rays of light shooting from behind his head as if he is the chosen enlightened one. Truth be told, this guy wouldn't recieve such harsh reviews from reggae fans if he wasn't so arrogant. Possibly because reviewers would feel so sorry for him if he were modest because the music is AWFUL. Modesty is the first lesson of reggae. However, this band seems to know that they have no chance at any real credentials because they play almost all covers at their shows- fooling their strictly superficial fans. This album is as fake as Brent himself. Save your money.

Intriguing.......2001-11-22

The negative reviews of this album are likely too focused on the race and background of Berry. Truth be known, if he didn't include his picture on the cover, you wouldn't know he's a white kid from Kansas. He blends styles of artists like John Brown's Body, Lucky Dube, and Bob Marley with adept skill and an exuberance that shapes an authentic reggae sound. Sure, it's not GREAT, but it's an engaging debut that WILL satisfy true reggae fans.
