“I call this my church house trilogy. Souls' Chapel really was music from the Mississippi Delta, which to me is a church within itself. The Delta is the church of American Roots music. The Badlands is a cathedral without a top on it. And the Ryman has been called the Mother Church of Country Music, but to me it's the Mother Church of American Music. If you can think it up, it's been done there. In my mind, this is kind of a spiritual odyssey as much as anything else, and I had the settings of three churches to make it in.” IfsThinkingMindKindHas BeensSoulCountryDoneSpiritualMotherThreeHouseChurchRootsSettingSettingsMississippiCathedralsChapelOdysseyAmerican MusicTrilogiesDeltaMississippi Delta Author:Marty Stuart
