Advantages: various sounds Disadvantages: a little bit poppy
I listened to this album again recently after owning it since it's release in 1999, and I can honestly say it's still as fresh as when I first heard it.
Sugar Ray released 'Lemonade & Brownies' in 1995 to not so great reviews.

Advantages: Many different styles Disadvantages: Not easy to find
Sugar Ray isn’t very popular in England but “Every Morning” did very well in the UK charts. I bought the album after this single was released.

The rest of the album pretty good. My favourite track is “Someday”, but “Falls Apart” follows very closely behind. ...

Album Reviews: Rolling Stone (2/4/99, p.59-60) - "...these Orange County, California, lover boys go off the deep end with gorgeous psychedelic guitar hooks and drum loops....hip-hop is just one of the influences corrupting their depraved young minds, and everything they play is shaped by the cut-and-paste aesthetic of the the sampler..."
