The Man That Tve Been great ly showcases Morrow’s songwrit ing abilities. Morrow does not have the best singing voice. Rather than being a hindrance, however. Morrow’s vocals add character to his songs. Besides, what great Texas troubadour is known for his singing prowess? Morrow uses his unique voice to sing about the traditional an thems of Texas — drinking, lov ing and, well, drinking. With songs like “Stayin’ Out Late,” “Nashville Blues,” “Big City Stripper” and his already fa mous song “Drink One More Round,” Morrow has made this album a worthwhile listening venture. Morrow even adds a little hu mor at the end of the album with his song “Songwriter’s Lament.” So hold your drinks up high and toast Cory Morrow.
