Review - :
{$Jack Johnson}, the multi-talented American guy who likes to surf and play music, makes an honest impression on his debut album, {^Brushfire Fairytales}. He's not focused on any genre in particular, but stays close to acoustic simplicities. {$Ben Harper}'s producer, {$J.P. Plunier}, lends a hand and perfects {$Johnson}'s basic songwriting into a charming and inviting soundscape of songs most personal to {$Johnson}. It's poetically abrasive, especially on tracks like {&"Sexy Plexi"} and {&"Fortunate Fool."} He's a bit of a lovesucker, but {^Brushfire Fairytales} isn't necessarily constructed to be on that target. {$Jack Johnson} is a regular guy and his most natural feelings are indeed candid. {&"Inaudible Melodies"} is a bluesy mix of lazy harmonies and acoustical twitching, whereas {&"Flake"} is an easy flow of American {\trad rock}, quite similar to {$Dave Matthews}, but echoing steel drums and {$Harper}'s blistering lap steel guitar make for an outstanding {\rock & roll} romp. {$Johnson}'s voice, which is hauntingly like {$Wes Cunningham}, makes {^Brushfire Fairytales} a decent record. He's not noisy or gregarious; he's content with his new creative finding. He might chase waves in his other life, but his songwriting ways do make for something quite charming. [The Japanese version includes a live version of {&"Inaudible Melodies."}] ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
