THE WALLFLOWERS "collected:1996-2005" cd, 2006
career stats:
studio albums................6
singles.........................13
no chart action stats for this album...
LA rock band fronted by Jakob Dylan(son of Bob)....
this is their best of compilation....
the vast majority of this album is strikingly similar to the sounds Tom Petty put out prior to the "full moon fever" era...
lyrically it is concise and intelligent like Petty and that of his father...
vocally, its nasally,again, like both the above mentioned artists plus on occasion,dare I say it....Mark Knopfler?
he even has that Dylan trait of expanding on words to make thing rhyme and fit together...
enough of the comparrisons...
this is a very good rock band/alt-rock/Americana outfit who hold their own in all departments...
its just a shame they never really achieved the success they deserved...
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
