O.B. isn't one of those guys who decided one day to put on a cowboy hat and record an album of country music in the middle of New York City. He's been sing- ing and playing country music all his life. And his album was recorded in Nashville because that's where they know what country music is all about. His first album, produced by Jim Malloy,. features the likes of Weldon Myrick and Buddy Spicher. And songs written by almost everyone who's anyone in country music. In short, O.B. is the real McCoy. Or more accurately; the real McClinton. ENS -1023
