At age 24, traditional country singer William Michael Morgan is something of a Throwback Thursday voice for the genre, compared favorably to Randy Travis, whose signature hits -- "On the Other Hand" and "Forever and Ever, Amen" -- predate Morgan by six to eight years.
With his latest single -- "Vinyl," which Warner Music Nashville (WMN) shipped to radio via PlayMPE on Sept. 11 -- Morgan pulls from music history even more, using an imperfect recording format to celebrate an old-fashioned romance. Introduced to the marketplace in March 1983, the CD was already 10 years into its run when Morgan was born, with its crisp, unforgiving tone replacing the warmth of analog and the pops and crackles that -accompanied 45- and 33-1/3 RPM records.
