"Oh, no no, I won't like that. I've never liked that. I'm not going to try it."
Such is the inner dialogue sometimes when a person eliminates the possibility of enjoying something based on past experience. For me, this includes spicy foods, horror movies, and country music.
Sometimes, however, I find that I need to challenge those thoughts, and listening to Zac Brown Band's You Get What You Give rewarded that thinking.
You Get What You Give started out a little slow for me. The first three tracks were about finding peace, being by the ocean with no worries, and being in no hurry, so I was feeling like I might be listening to Jimmy Buffett (especially since he guests on the second track.). After the first few tracks, however, I appreciated ZBB's versatility, instrumentation and songwriting. Upon multiple listens, I enjoyed the first few tracks even more and can listen to You Get What You Give straight through. Definitely recommended- as is trying something new once in a while. It's just a fun set of songs to listen to- there's some reggae, some country, and some jamming.
Tracks I especially enjoyed: "Quiet Your Mind", "Cold Hearted", and "Who Knows" (an excellent ten-minute jam)
