The line that separates the genres of country and soul music has never been a particularly thick one and over the decades there has been a healthy swapping of repertoire between the genres. "Behind Closed Doors: Where Country Meets Soul" brings together some supreme spins on songs that were first recorded – usually successfully – by country artists. 24 tracks ranging from the dark to the light, from tearjerkers to optimistic rompers.
