Spin Doctors - Pocket Full of Kyrptonite

Don’t Americans just love Jam Bands?  From the Grateful Dead to the Dave Matthews Band (and I would even include the Counting Crows here) it seems like quite an American phenomenon. 

I think the idea is that every performance is unique.  So, you never know what you’re going to get. I guess, in some ways, it’s a bit like jazz.  Taking a song and stretching it into new and interesting directions.  Of course, your mileage may vary with that.  For me, jam bands (much like jazz) has never really done anything for me.  It just feels like endless noodling. 

I did own this album back in the day.  It has two great songs on it (Two Princes and Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong).  The rest of the album is overlong, bloated, noodly and impenetrable.  I’m pretty sure you need to be stoned to appreciate this.
