You know the man. He carries a badge. Can he carry a tune? He doesn't have to. He's Jack Webb, and this is the Rhino Handmade release: Just The Tracks Ma'am. This 25 track CD collects Jack's Warner Brothers recordings, and the straightforward magic he brought to the microphone. I know what you're thinking, "Jack Webb... that's a one-way ticket to Squaresville!" Well, you couldn't be more wrong, brother. Whether he's reading some punk (hopped up on goofballs) his rights, or the lyrics of "Try A Little Tenderness" over lush strings, he's got IT. That IT is a voice that has loved and lost, seen ups and downs, and never once showed a hint of palpable emotion. Sure, there are plenty of kooky kids out there who can wear their hearts on their sleeves, but none of them can match Jack's intimate monotone. So sit back and enjoy Jack Webb's "romantic reflections" from his record You're My Girl and the instrumental musings of Jack Webb Presents Pete Kelly Lets His Hair Down. It's all here on Just The Tracks Ma'am.
