    Does anyone know if there will be a re-release on vinyl for the 20th anniversary? Preferably in a metal candy box.

      This really needs a vinyl release badly, really good album.

        As one of the few groups of her generation left Counting Crows is inspired by the traditional American rock of The Band and especially the early solo work of van Morrison. The tormented vocals and poetic lyrics of singer Adam Duritz forced the group both to the post grunge generation of the 1990s, as the slightly older rock lovers. By personal problems by Duritz had earlier albums by the Crows somewhat suffered from a top-heavy character, though they made impression by the constant high musical quality. On Hard Candy is well managed to strike a balance between the familiar emotional depth and lighter packages. A fine example is the melodic masterpiece Butterfly In Reverse, that along with Ryan Adams was written. Still makes Counting Crows no background music, far from it, but Hard Candy has the potential to a wide audience.
