Dave Matthews Band: Busted Stuff
Published August 14, 2002
I'm not even going to try to pick favorite songs from this CD. I liked "Where Are You Going" before I heard it on this CD, so that doesn't count. As I write this, I've got "Busted Stuff" playing in my head, but that may just be because it's the title song.
And, it comes with a DVD, which I was mighty impressed by. Probably because I just recently bought a DVD player. It contains live performances of "Grey Street" and "Bartender," and an audio only version of "Bartender" — which seems kind of strange to throw on a DVD, but there ya go.
My one complaint is with the liner notes. If you want to read the lyrics, you'll have to go online. They're in the notes, but they are almost impossible to read. The text is nearly the same color as the background on each page. This may be very artistic, but it's just annoying to those of us who like to read lyrics.
In short, if you're a DMB fan, this CD has lots of yummy DMB goodness for you to enjoy. If you're not — what's the matter with you? Go sort out your issues, then come back and give this a listen.

I'm so glad "Blogcritics" exists. It rounds up every single hack blahg writer and confines them all in one space which I can easily avoid.
Seriously, if Dave Matthews read a review that actually used the phrase "yummy DMB goodness" to describe his latest album, he'd puke faster than I did.
