Tennessee Ernie Ford - Mr And Mississippi Shes My Baby

Review by Leidya Boutros

Tennessee Ernie Ford's album "Mr. and Mississippi She's My Baby" is a classic country album that showcases Ford's signature baritone voice and traditional country sound. The album features a mix of original songs and covers, including the title track "Mr. and Mississippi," "I'm a Pilgrim," and "She's My Baby."

The album is a testament to Ford's versatility as a performer, as he effortlessly transitions from upbeat, foot-stomping tunes to heartfelt ballads. The instrumentation on the album is simple yet effective, with acoustic guitars, fiddles, and mandolins providing the perfect backdrop to Ford's vocals.

One standout track on the album is "I'm a Pilgrim," a traditional gospel song that showcases Ford's ability to convey emotion through his singing. The song starts off slow and builds to a powerful climax, with Ford's voice soaring above the instrumentation.
