Ryan Adams Gold DVD-Audio Review Most of the album sounds like a second rate impersonation of John (Cougar) Mellencamp. It seems to me that Ryan Adams is stuck somewhere between John Mayer and Jason Mraz, except he doesn’t have their vocal or writing talents, not to mention the undeniable blues guitar chops of Mayer, nor the affable if not downright goofy charm of Mraz. The upside-down American flag as his backdrop on the album’s cover, not to mention the one on the back cover seems a desperate attempt to play into the country’s heightened sense of patriotism at the time this album was originally released. www.avrev.com /music/revs/ryanadams.shtml   (968 words)
