Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Traveler's Blues garnered Blues Traveler a Grammy nomination for Best Traditional Blues Album, so it makes sense that the band would want to capitalize on that momentum with a sequel and that the sequel would be Traveler's Soul, a collection where the group provides their own spin on a number of classic R&B tunes. Blues Traveler's definition of R&B is fairly catholic, spanning everything from Stevie Wonder's version of the Beatles' "We Can Work It Out" and Al Green's "Tired of Being Alone" to TLC's "Waterfalls" and Deee-Lite's "Groove Is in the Heart." Everything is tied together by Blues Traveler's focus on the smooth, funky R&B that came out at the tail end of the soul era -- this is more 1970s than 1960s -- a decision that helps showcase the group's adept navigation of laid-back grooves. John Popper shares the stage with a variety of guests -- Valerie June shows up on "I Can't Stand the Rain," both Train's Pat Monahan and Daisha McBride appear on "Waterfalls" -- which gives Traveler's Soul a vague air of a celebration: this isn't just the band enjoying the mellow good times, it's their friends too. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
