I like it quite a bit actually.  He has a great way of telling stories
that are light-hearted ("Drive By") yet he calls up a certain melancholy
that feels very genuine and earnest ("My Own Town" and "Darkest Hour"). 
He's not the most versatile vocalist but he uses his vocabulary very
well and is a very good lyricist, I think.  

(For those who don't know him, he was the lead singer of Toad the Wet
Sprocket.)

Sorry it took a minute to respond to this, but I was just starting to
get into the record.

Brenda

n.p. - k.d. lang - "My Old Addiction" (which is possibly her best vocal
performance on record IMO)
