Switchback the Second Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Counting Crows debut album. I'm of the belief this is a perfect album. And not hyperbole, but an objectively perfect record. I still to this day (20+ years later) remember exactly being in my car and driving to school when 'Round Here' came on. It was totally different than what normally came out of the radio on those trips to school. That song still hits me in the gut and takes me right back to that first listen. The album is a masterpiece, not a missed-placed note on the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedEyedGhost Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 One of my all time favorites. I still listen to it several times every autumn. It's just so evocative of that time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebla Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'd say this album in my top 2 favorite of all time along with Pearl Jam's Ten. So many good songs and some very personal for me, especially Anna Begins and Raining in Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switchback the Second Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 Nice, not just me then. It really is a perfectly laid out album, and each song feels totally necessary for the whole. It being a debut album makes it all the more incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
