Well I forgot that I wanted to add a Segment for Music. Music has been an extremely important part of my life recently, and I believe that music is what fuels our soul. It keeps humanity together as a whole. In my opinion there are four things that don't change no matter where you are, and those are Music, Surfing, Soccer, and Dreadlocks. But to get onto the point, this section of my blog will be basically reccomendations of artists that many may not have heard, or a review of an album, and it will all be my reccomendations, and my reviews. It will have a little for everyone one, because I listen to all music, yes even a little country now, but not much of it.

first up is Ben Harper, Ben Harper is a Californian musician that kinda combines Reggae with Blues, and he does it well. Ben Harper plays a lap slide for some of his music, which is not often seen in the genre. Nowadays he plays with a band, same kind of idea as John Mayer and his Trio, this is Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals. Their Latest album is "Lifeline", and was released last year, it's a good CD start to finish. If your a fan of Jack Johnson, John Mayer, Eric Clapton, or Bob Marley go out and buy the album.

Second up is Eddie Vedder, Some of you might know of him, he is the lead singer from Pearl Jam. Now he did the Soundtrack for the movie into the wild, and it is a great soundtrack. The whole thing is bassically a solo album by Eddie Vedder, and as far as I know it's the only way to get anything solo by him, but it is really good. He's got more of a country style too his sound, and he uses the Mandalin to get that through, also his voice is a bit rougher, experienced sounding that others in the genre. So again i'm going to reccomend buying it, I think it's worth it. And again this is if you like stuff like Jack Johnson, and other Solo Acoustic Rock / Folk Rock artists.

The Last one is Jamie Lidell. Right of the bat i'm going to reccomend EVERYBODY should go out and buy his latest album "Jim". Theres not much to say about this dude, He's a white man singing soul, and putin his heart into it. There's not alot of musicians these days that put their heart into the music like this guy, and to top it off, he's got class, and lots of it. This album puts me into a good mood and gets me amped no matter what i'm doing, so hurry up and go buy it, especially you snowboarders.

Read the next post too, they go together, I forgot to add this part before I pushed publish...
