Editorial Review:
Guster's formula is quite simple: Take time-tested harmonies à la Simon and Garfunkel or the Hollies, pour them over pleasant acoustic guitars, and add a pinch of congas for toe-tapping made easier. Lost and Gone Forever all but screams "radio friendly!" (especially with hit-producing wunderkind Steve Lillywhite at the knobs), but luckily the final product is more palatable than that. The musical plan is occasionally augmented by an electric guitar or strings, but generally follows harmonious sounds over articulate voices. Some people will listen to Lost and Gone Forever and find it too slight and completely corny, but others will fall under the spell of Ryan Miller and Adam Gardner's full-bodied vocal blend. --Jason Josephes

Rating: - So, so good
I love this cd. I listen to a lot of music from every genre, but this is in constant rotation on my iPod because it's so solid. It's happy, great music that also manages to be intelligent and ironic, and that's something I'm always in the mood for.
PS You MUST see these guys live! I dragged along a friend to their concert and even though she'd never heard of them she loved it and ended up buying almost all of their cd's the next day. She ended up not being able to go at the last ... Read More
Rating:  - Received in time for Christmas
This was purchased as a Christmas present for my daughter. It arrived just in time for Christmas. She was very happy with the purchase.
Rating: - Better than in concert
Love the cd, hated the concert - In New York at the Beacon, the sound system sucked
Rating: - The best guster CD if not the best CD ever
I have bought this CD a year ago and to this day it remains in my stereo all the time. Every single song on it is an instant guster classic and each song is very catchy in its own way. What you wish for is easily the best opening song on any guster cd to date. The bongos perfectly blend with the acoustic and electric guitars creating the most perfect musical sound i have ever heard, even better than the catchiness of oar or even dave matthews band.
The barrell of a gun is easily my favorite ... Read More
Rating: - One of my favorite albums EVER
I love all types of music (rock, alternative, folk, jazz, country, bluegrass, etc. etc.) and listen to a little bit of everything. Having said that, if I was on a deserted island for a year, this would be on my top 5 of CD's to listen to repeatedly. The harmonies are amazing, the songs are Beatlesesque, and the pacing is great (except for the last song, Rainy Day, which I think even the band admits is kind of a "downer" after the rest of the (fairly) upbeat album). I've liked every CD they've done since ... Read More
