Counting Crows have proven time and again over their long career that they're able to harness folk-rock structures to create vibrant, memorable tunes. “When I Dream of Michelangelo” is gentle and nuanced with delicate guitar work and soft piano. On “1492,” they straddle punk rock with biting riffs and Adam Duritz's emotive voice. And they bring new weight to the Faces' “Ooh La La” with a nostalgic, stripped-down feeling.
