McGinty & White

Ward White has teamed up with Joe McGinty on a new album. You don't usually hear the word 'beautiful' associated with a male singer, but Ward's got a beautiful voice.

When I have time to check out one of the albums submitted to ANABlog, my usual method is to put it on while I do something else. If a track makes my ears perk up, I give it a second listen, and if I dig it, I post it.

Ward & Joe have made the kind of album that you can't help but listen to closely. I kept trying to put it on in the background, but I repeatedly failed to do anything except listen to the gorgeous songs. "I'm So Tired" is a fine case in point, and the whole album is streaming at their website. Though it's titled McGinty & White Sing Selections from the McGinty & White Songbook, it does close with a wonderful cover of "Wichita Lineman" which you should totally check out.
