The third part in Church’s
Heart & Soul trilogy focuses on the soul from Motown to Stax to Muscle Shoals that have influenced his life and music. Top cuts are the languid “Hell of a View,” about finding the perfect partner to go through life’s adventures with; the chugging, unapologetic “Break It Kind of Guy” and “Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones,” the kind of emotional storytelling song that so few artists even attempt these days, much less succeed with to the degree that Church does.
Keith Urban feat. Breland & Nile Rodgers, “Out the Cage”
Urban is country music’s most fascinating shape-shifter, easily melding different musical styles with complete ease. Here, he busts forth with a frenetic, nonstop banger with great assists from newcomer Breland and icon Rodgers on a tune about not allowing oneself to be limited in any way.

While I haven’t had a chance to listen to every single track just yet, my early impression is that it’s more prime music from Church.
Everyone who listens to Eric Church knows he’s not your everyday traditional country singer. He’s got a serious edge to him, and he embraces it.
In many ways, he’s a throwback to the rebels of country music from back in the day. “Soul” is a great reminder of that fact.
“Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones,” “Bad Mother Trucker,” “Break It Kind of Guy” and “Rock & Roll Found Me” are all outstanding songs, and I’m sure I’ll love them the more I listen to them.
