John Paul White - The Long Goodbye (2008)

A dark, brooding, and brilliant piece of work by John Paul White (award-winning songwriter and half of the Grammy-nominated, Billboard chart-toppers Civil Wars). Recorded at the legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals (Aretha Franklin, Little Richard), this solo album presents a fresh take on the classic Southern Gothic style, presented by the then-unknown undiscovered talent. Set to be released on Columbia, it was recorded & produced by Mike Hedges (U2, the Cure) and set to be a landmark launching pad for Whites career until the Civil Wars took off and all plans for this record were set aside.
