I think Keb Mo fills in a real gap -- that of "adult contemporary" that isn't cheesy pop. Sorta like Norah Jones. Keb Mo is best when he's playing that slide guitar solo. he's killer live as others have said. Agreed, Big Wide Grin was the cheesy family album. His new album is good and does get closer to his roots. He's also very positive, and some of his songs can have a "you can do it" kind of touchy feely feeling, but they're still good.
