I'm Good Now is the third solo album by Bob Schneider, released on April 13, 2004 through Shockorama Records and distributed by Vanguard.^[1]^[2] It was described by Allmusic.com as ' quite varied, echoing several singer/songwriter traditions',^[3] while popmatters found it 'an impressive batch of songs'.^[4] On the lyrics Schneider explained that 'none of them are autobiographical. They are all different narrators, they are all different personas'.^[2] No Depression magazine found the collection of song perhaps too eclectic and saying that 'even the most patient listener's endurance has been sorely, and possibly fatally, tested' towards the end.^[5] The album was awarded 'Album of the Year' at the Austin Music Awards of 2004.^[6] The album was produced by Billy Harvey,^[7] and featured contributions by Rafael Gayol and the Tosca String Quartet.^[1] The song "Love Is Everywhere" was featured in the film All About Steve.
