MY MORNING JACKET Z For two albums, the most noteworthy thing about My Morning Jacket was its air of cultivated scruffiness; its members looked like Lynyrd Skynyrd Muppet Babies--and played like them. Here they finally shake off their youthful jam-band fascination and write some songs. From the ecstatic atmospherics of Wordless Chorus to the crackling What a Wonderful Man, singer Jim James is expansive without being lazy. If they still pack in an odd, trippy tune about kittens on fire (Into the Woods), it's perhaps because some jam-band habits are harder to break than others.

Wow, that was shockingly Horid!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I think I'm just tired of reading reviews of this album by people who have no clue.  I mean not having a clue is fine until you start acting like you know it all.

How do you play like a Lynyrd Skynyrd Muppet Baby?  

That sounds like fun.
