Amazon.com Skateboarding and hip-hop culture have always made good bedfellows--you only need ask Tommy Guerrero. This icon of the sport is just about as famous as a skateboarder can get, yet at the age of thirty-three he decided to hang up his wheels and concentrate on more leisurely pursuits. A Little Bit of Somethin' is the inspired result--an album for which campfires and kicking back must surely have been invented. It's a little bit country, a little bit rock & roll, a Beck-lite collision of postrock blues, breezy summer jazz and whatever else gets pulled out of the rucksack. "Pescadito" is Nirvana's "Come as You Are" stripped down to its drum machine bones; "Soul Miner" oozes hot buttered '70s soul; "4 Track Samba" does exactly what it says on the tin, while "100 Years" is the sound of Ukrainian peasants nodding their heads to a twilight hip-hop mantra. This is music to toast marshmallows to. --Paul Tierney Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsLet Your Mind Unwind funkmob | C.A-U.S.A | 08/13/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "In this great future you cant forget your past!! So tommy G.. a blast from the sprained ankle past. The disk rocks! Its 1970, you got your ray bans on, the world is a hazy golden brown, you are cool like that... The tracks are Phat, loops are forgiving and represent an envelope of cutting edge artists that really pick up a laid back open sound thats fresh and engulfing, Some of the beats could be a little more complex, but then again there could be more artists attempting to make mucis like this. What i want to see is - Get Dj Shadow - Money Mark - Tommy G - and Beck... all in the same studio together laying down tracks what an outcome.. Buy This CD!!! Soundtrack to the futurefunk millenium pt1..." An Ambient Soundtrack to Life's Leisures 7th Angl | Ontario, Canada | 10/12/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "When I picked up this album a couple of months ago, I confess: it was strictly an impulse buy. Admittedly, only the album cover attracted my attention, and I didn't have a clue what Tommy G. was all about. When I threw it on my cd player, however, boy was I engulfed into a trance-like state of mind that I rarely achieve except while listening to artists like Portishead or Cibo Matto. Upon first listen, the tracks tend to meld into each other, leaving titles almost obsolete. But don't get me wrong, each stands out in its own beautiful way. From somber atmospheric iterations like on "its raining again" to downright funk with an operatic twist on "soul miner", this offering will probably disappoint many who like grandiose production, while those who can appreciate minimalimist tactics will enjoy this CD while studying, doing the dishes, or whatever menial activities we seek to enhance. Not bad for a CD that clocks in at just under 50 minutes." Great C. Burnette | Austin, TX | 03/27/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "I purchased the album based solely on my inability to get the song Tiny out of my head. I was pleasantly surprised by the rest of the tracks."
