Soulsville (Huey Lewis And The News Album)
''Soulsville'' is the ninth studio album from Huey Lewis and the News and the band's first since ''Plan B'' in 2001. The album was released on October 18, 2010, in the United Kingdom and Europe and November 2, 2010, in the United States.

Recording Lewis and the News recorded ''Soulsville'' at Ardent Studios in Memphis, Tennessee, in early 2010.

Music is generally defined as the art of arranging sound to create some combination of form, harmony, melody, rhythm or otherwise expressive content. Exact definitions of music vary considerably around the world, though it is an aspect of all human societies, a cultural universal. While scholars agree that music is defined by a few specific elements, there is no consensus on their precise definitions. The creation of music is commonly divided into musical composition, musical improvisation, and musical performance, though the topic itself extends into academic disciplines, criticism, philosophy, and psychology. Music may be performed or improvised using a vast range of instruments, including the human voice. In some musical contexts, a performance or composition may be to some extent improvised. For instance, in Hindustani classical music, the performer plays spontaneously while following a partially defined structure and using characteristic motifs. In modal jazz th ...
