Hootie & The Blowfish | The Best Of (CD)

Hootie & the Blowfish, more suited to being local bar favorites than superstars, captured the essence of the early '90s with their ordinary yet relatable music. Their debut album, "Cracked Rear View," resonated with millions, sounding like everyone's favorite local band. Although their fame peaked quickly and their follow-up albums saw less success, their music remained consistent and of high quality throughout the decade. The 2004 compilation, "The Best of Hootie & the Blowfish (1993 Thru 2003)," showcases this consistency, featuring all their hits and some covers, presented like a live set list. This collection highlights their straightforward style and enduring appeal, even if their later efforts like the cover of "Goodbye Girl" didn't quite hit the mark.
