On July 22, 2008, T-Model Ford stepped into Planet Paul Studios to record "The Ladies Man," his very first acoustic album. On this record T-Model has 100% control over the production, and the album is the product of a live, one-take afternoon session with no overdubs and minimal mixing.
"It definitely felt more like play than work. 'I don't have a care in the world,' T-Model would remark occasionally during our time together. He'd back it up by taking time in the studio to sip Jack Daniels from his flask and tell 'blue' stories or tales of his life's hardships to his new set of listeners. At 88 years old, he appeared younger and livelier than many folks a fraction of his age." - Martin Reinsel
