Hootie and the Blowfish. Remember 'em?
Cracked Rear View was one of the highest selling albums of all time, but the albums that followed are pretty much anonymous.
In 2003, they released a Greatest Hits compilation. Remember that?
Cracked Rear View was nothing particularly innovational, yet it sure made millions of record buyers feel good. Their music typified the 1990's and the considerable contentment of the period.
This thread is for general discussion of a long forgotten band who wrote what was arguably the most "feel-good" album of the 1990's.
Also, I think it is high time some people began to question what the legacy of Cracked Rear View was on popular music. What bands do you think bear a strong Hootie and the Blowfish influence?
Most critics accepted that the music was very conservative, yet at the same time, few expressed any real dislike towards the album. It seems that it was just too "nice" to not like.
In retrospect, to me personally, it seems pretty special and essential...
