I can still remember exactly where I was when I first heard the Barenaked Ladies. I was driving in Dayton, Ohio, where I lived at the time, and Box Set came on the radio. It was the public radio station in Dayton where I often discovered cool new music. Not knowing who it was, I was convinced it must be some older artist trying to make a comeback and singing ironically about his new box set. It just sounded way too mature to be a brand new artist. Anyway, I ended up buying this album on CD and was instantly hooked. It's an amazing debut really, showing a level of musicality and maturity beyond their years. Great addition to the list. 5 stars.

For sure Barenaked Ladies should have been included in the main list, and this sunny debut is a fine choice of album. I remember when If I Had A Million Dollars came out and thought it was great at the time and, to my ears, the whole album still holds up. Solid share.

Barenaked ladies are a group Iv heard of but never really properly listened too. This is Good fun soft rock album, added to my frequent rotation.

This was alright

This is pretty straightforward, pleasant pop with a bit of a smirk. Some of the songs are bit corny, but it has a brightness and earnestness that's hard not to like. Fave Songs: Brian Wilson, Blame It on Me, Box Set, If I Had $1000000, Be My Yoko Ono, What a Good Boy

Plenty of personality on this one, with some tongue-in-cheek songwriting and Cajun influence to boot. I've never been a huge fan of this band taste-wise, but there's no denying their musicianship and distinct style – agree that not including them on the current 1001 is a big oversight, so this was a more than worthy add.
