Well, being a big Zac Brown fan I was awaiting this new release with baited breath.

This album lives up to it's name, Jekyl and Hyde

It is a complete escape from the Zac Brown we all knew, up to this point.

It has 16 tracks of a varied musical mix. "Loving you is easy" is a upbeat tempo that reminds me of old ZB albums. It has a great beat and has Zac vocals.

However, there are many songs that have other band members and guests singing. As well there is a track, "Mango tree" sounds like a Frank Sinatra produced big band track, sounds nice, but doesn't fit the Zac Brown sound.

"Castaway" is probably the best track on the CD. It has great rhythms and has an Island feel.

"One Day," starts with a familar Zac entry musically and vocally. A great full bodied track that is melodically soothing and soulful.

This CD has enough tracks that I think anyone who buys it will find some tracks that are new and some that sound familiar to ZBB.

3.5 out of 5.

Let me know what "U" think;D
