3 Car Garage - The Indie Recordings '95-'96 - 3210

Amazon.com The surprise of 3 Car Garage, which collects pre-fame recordings by the mighty under-18 trio, isn't in the somewhat rough production, but how well-formed the Hanson aesthetic was before they met song doctors and the Dust Brothers. That production team streamlined "MmmBop" from the perceptibly slower version here; it was the boys, though, who tried their hands at a "Sweet Jane" soundalike ("Stories") and the pomp-rock play of "Day Has Come." Isaac, Taylor, and Zac take everything with such honest enthusiasm, it's clear that they would've set up amps and drums with or without their parents' encouragement. The place to start a Hanson collection is still last year's Middle of Nowhere, but these kids' Garage days are more proof that their millions of fans aren't wrong. --Rickey Wright Product description HANSON 3 CAR GARAGE: INDIE RECORDINGS 95 - 96 Review On 3 Car Garage--a collection of "early" songs recorded in 1995 and '96--Ike's voice is competent but charmless. It's when Taylor takes the token lead, with his hint of a rasp and intuitive grasp of how to slide around a melody, that the trio is immediately transformed.... If nothing else, these unpolished but promising recordings prove that Hanson is no novelty act ... but while Garage makes for fascinating history, as a listening experience it's far less transfixing. -- Entertainment Weekly
