Query: Scratching my head

I recently have heard a few things about this singer-songwriter and thought I'd check out a few of his CD's including this one. I must be missing something here. I have been heavy into music since the early '60's and am a big fan of Dylan, Lennon, etc. but I simply don't see the fuss over this guy. He sounds like some local coffee shop singer who sometimes has some interesting lyrics but the music isn't very inventive at all. It has a total lack of melody and the guitar playing is simple. Sorry I wouldn't recommend this to anyone I know.
