Gin Blossoms
Congratulations I'm Sorry

 

   Why is it that the sophomore efforts of bands are so often neglected? You can't find either this album or the Spin Doctors' "Turn It Upside Down" on CDNow. Not that the answer is too difficult--it's probably because neither one is as good as their band's debut. I'd be hard put to remember what any of these songs except "Follow You Down," and even that's not so much due to my fondness for the song as it is the annoying ubiquity of the thing on radio at the time.
