Back again with their latest release, "A Little
Out of Sync", Jack Blanchard and Misty Morgan.
Let me first point out that the title of the album only
reflects the jaded humor in Jack, it is in no way a description of the music!
They've done it again; the dynamic duo of Jack
Blanchard and Misty Morgan have put together enough great songs to fill TWO CDs and here I
am, tryin' to decide which 5 out of 19 songs would best represent the many musical
stylings of Jack and Misty.
I could go with all the funny and crazy songs, which can keep ya rollin' for awhile to
come. The witty wordsmith, Jack Blanchard can whip together some of the most non-sensical
words and make them not only comprehensible, but lovable. Actually, I sometimes worry
about myself when I understand him the most. Scary thought, isn't it? Then again, there's
the serious side to this twosome which I can only think must stem from their many years of
marriage, in life and in music. The perfect pair always bringing us the perfect blend of
each other.
Well, I decided to simply listen to all, and chose the songs that
most moved me, be it to tears or laughter.. not an easy task for any reviewer or music
lover, pickin' only a few of Jack and Misty's songs, but hey, someone had to do it and
they chose me... of course I'm honored to showcase them on MKOC, just want to make sure I
do them the justice they deserve. ;) One final point I'd like to make, you'll find that
this album was mis-titled because Jack and Misty are anything but "A Little Out of
Sync"!
