Oncle Jazz is an incredibly enjoyable listening experience and a recommended prescription for the blues. The kind of album that most people need to escape into at the end of the day.
Pleasant vibe overall, the songs have a very consistent palette of sounds for the most part so sometimes they blend together but im sure its intentional, some songs managed to stand out anyways so I'm not mad at all
Edit: honestly surprised about how much i enjoyed my second listen of this, it's soooo cozy
Edit 2: I've had a short phase with this, it's such a nice album to unwind to at night
Edit 3: uhh the phase wasn't over and it doesn't want to stop, i think i just love this
24 tracks can seem daunting but this is such an easy and chill listen. Lovely vocals and production. Something distinct about each track that keeps you engaged. I'd say the instrumental tracks aren't needed tbh. the album works well without them
Faves: Numb, Norton Commander, Something in Water
for being over an hour, and how repetitive it is, its surprising on how great this album still holds up. ultimate comfort album.
Best Track: Show Me How
Worst Track: Dorian
