Michael Franti is a musical guru. This head bopping, thought inducing, danceable music is awesome. The beats, the melodies, the lyrics all come together and make me turn the music up loud, kick off my shoes and rock. Politically active lyrics inspire reflection, the upbeat tunes let me think deeply about human nature without bringing me down. Little bit reggae, little bit rock and roll with a we're at the club dancing feel this cd is great.
I heard an interview on NPR with Michael Franti and decided to look up the song "Say Hey" on youtube. I loved the video and immediately ordered the CD. It's a great, uplifting album. I listen to songs 6 & 7 every morning while getting ready for work! I ordered one for my son and another for a friend who is very ill. I thought the CD might inspire some positive feelings. I LOVE THIS CD!!!
I first heard "Say Hey" on Craig Ferguson's show and liked it. I took a gamble on the rest of the album and love it. Nice mix of slow and fast songs. "Soundsystem" has a nice, driving rythm. The various songs just keep running through my head. He even sounds like Cat Stevens on one of the songs!
