David Gray expertly melds great alternative acoustic and piano pieces with well-implemented backing beats on his album White Ladder. This melodic and rhythmic combination works flawlessly, delivering some high-quality tracks like "Please Forgive Me" and "We're Not Right". As cool as this formula sounds, it's the slower ballads that are the highlights of the album. Songs like "This Year's Love" and "Say Hello Wave Goodbye" are tracks that are perfect for those last songs you listen to before you go to sleep, the one's that you can get easily sucked into. You know what I'm talking about. Anyways, this is a nice, easy-going listen that has much depth and value that should keep you coming back to it many times over.
