As a jam band in the vein of Blues Traveler and Phish, Spin Doctors built a grassroots following by playing anywhere and everywhere. After a live EP caught their early potential, they released this uncharacteristically tight debut album. Featuring several hits that could have appeared on a Steve Miller Band album, Kryptonite became an immediate frat-rock favorite. Thanks to a spotless production, the tight groove of "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong," "Two Princes," and "Jimmy Olsen's Blues" immediately connected with audiences who seemed to find singer Chris Barron's hapless hippie lyrics and goofy grin a winning combination. --Rob O'Connor
Album Description
Reissue of their 1991 album. Includes 3 live previously unreleased bonus tracks, 'Yo Mamas A Pajama', 'Sweet Widow' & 'Stepped On A Crack'.

 A must have September 30, 2008
THis is in my list of top 50 all time Albums to own. I enjoy this entire album. I actually enjoy the songs they haven't played on the radio more than two princes, and little miss cant be wrong.
A fun blast from the past... July 15, 2008
Though some folks criticize the Spin Doctors as "one-hit" wonders, this album actually has a few keepers on it. "Two Princes" and "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong" were huge hits, and rightly so. And "Jimmy Olsen's Blues" was another great song. A few others on this album were tolerable, and several were quite forgettable. But the Spin Doctors spent a few years in the limelight, thanks to this solid album with its handful of classics. Though it may seem a bit dated, anyone with a hint of early 90's nostalgia would be well-served to own this album and sing along with the Spin Doctors.
 A few good songs April 28, 2008
I recall about two years of fame for Spin Doctors, which is when I bought this CD - "Two Princes" got a lot of air time. My favorite is "Jimmy Olsen's Blues".
 Brilliant CD December 15, 2007
Back when this CD was fresh and new, I couldn't stand it. The radio stations just killed "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong", and everytime I heard it, I wanted to hit the radio.
Fast Forward 16 years later, I find myself listening to more and more jam bands. I decided to give this CD a shot, and was amazed it went totally beyond that song I mentioned above. This CD is fantastic! I would recommend it to anyone. That song may have been beaten to death..but the rest of the songs on this CD are classic in their own right. Worth your $$
One of my favorite all time. August 12, 2007
Great album. Spin Doctors wrongly got the reputation from critics as a flash in the pan one hit wonder who couldn't handle the success. In fact they are a extremely talented band who put out an outstanding body of fun, catchy, jamming rock music. Dig it.
