Review

Rolling Stone (11/28/02, p.92) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...The album overflows with catchy melodies, propelled by Dylan's urgent vocals....It adds up to a straightforward barnburner of an album..."
Entertainment Weekly (11/8/02, p.106) - "...Pure, sunny pop....Cheery..." - Rating: B+
Mojo (Publisher) (3/03, p.112) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Dylan and company make some damn fine music....It seems that they have finally loosened up enough to enjoy themselves and make music they want to hear..."

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.

The Wallflowers: Jakob Dylan (vocals, guitar); Rami Jaffe (keyboards, vibraphone); Greg Richling (mini-Moog synthesizer, bass guitar); Mario Colire (drums, background vocals).

Additional personnel: Mike McCready, Rusty Anderson, Val McCallum (guitar); Ben Peeler (lap steel guitar); David Campbell (strings); Lenny Castro (percussion); Bill Appleberry (programming); Courtney Kaiser, Moe Z M.D. (background vocals).

Recording information: Groovemasters, Los Angeles, California; Sound City, Los Angeles, California; Record One, Los Angeles, California.

On the surface, RED LETTER DAYS bears some sonic similarities to the previous couple of Wallflowers albums (rich, Byrdsy guitar tones, Tom Petty-ish roots-rock production, and of course Jakob Dylan's husky, engaging vocals). Closer listening, however, reveals a number of advances. For one thing, Dylan's lyrics are sharper than ever, especially on the darkly poetic verses of "When You're on Top," which nicely counterbalance an almost too-catchy chorus that smacks of chart envy. Similarly, "Three Ways" and "If You Never Got Sick" achieve a moody poignancy that's simultaneously visceral and evocative (no mean feat). There are new sonic developments as well; Rami Jaffee's keyboard arsenal sounds somewhat expanded beyond his trademark B-3 organ, and is utilized accordingly, to give many of the songs a more modern edge than the band has evinced in the past. One small step for man...well, you know the rest.
