{"product_id":"im-good-now","title":"I'm Good Now","description":"Personnel includes: Bob Schneider, Bill Harvey (vocals, guitar, keyboards, bass, drums, percussion, programming); Bruce Hughes (vocals, bass); Derek Morris (piano); Rafael Gayol (drums, percussion).\u003cbr\u003eI'm Good Now is quite varied, echoing several singer\/songwriter traditions. You can hear traces of Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Bruce Springsteen, and Van Morrison here and there, though laced with a sort of American heartland rock \u0026amp; roll spirit not found too abundantly in any of those figures, other than possibly Springsteen. In fact, sometimes there's a sense that you might be listening to a compilation album, the record moving from fairly slick, earnest mainstream rock and more anthemic, alternative-minded stuff to near-folk (\"A Long Way to Get\"), country-laced outlaw narrative (the title track), crunchy hard rock (\"C'mon Baby\"), studly funk humor (\"Capn Kirk\"), and white boy hip-hop-tinged rock (\"Getting Better\"). The songs are pretty verbose, without conveying much specific other than the sense of a guy rolling with the punches, one day at a time, sometimes with an observational sense of humor that falls short of knee-slapping. What this lacks, other than a set identity, is much of an individual voice, drawing extensively on tested rock singer\/songwriter forms without adding much of note to them. The only big surprise on the record is when an unidentified ballad plays as a hidden track after a minute or so of silence following \"Getting Better,\" the last song listed on the sleeve. ~ Richie Unterberger","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42376028029093,"sku":"652135395669","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/12760170e6e83435e24b9c288c96d32d.jpg?v=1777623745","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-ca\/products\/im-good-now","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
