Brooks becomes a "Time Traveler"
Produced by Brooks, the 10-track album will be included in Brooks' new seven-disc boxed set, "The Limited Series."
Brooks said, "There are a lot of different eras on this album, thus the name. Country music's core is sincerity; after that, you can dress it up a thousand different ways. I am so lucky to live under the flag of country music."
"The Limited Series" will be on sale exclusively at Bass Pro Shops on Nov. 7. The set includes "Man Against Machine," "Gunslinger," "Fun" and the three-disc "Triple Live." This is the third and final release of "The Limited Series." The previous two were released in 1998 and 2005.
The release is timed with a dive bar concert to celebrate the opening of Brooks' Friends in Low Places Bar & Honky-Tonk in Nashville. This will be the first opportunity for fans to get in the bar. The only way in to the concert is to win tickets by listening to The BIG 615 station on TuneIn.

The high points for Brooks are the three most traditional country songs - a couple of honky tonkers ("Honky-Tonk Somewhere" and "Cowboys and Friends") and a ballad ("Whiskey to Wine"). ...
After releasing his debut album in 1989, Garth Brooks released music almost every year until he announced his retirement in 2000. Since then, he has released repackaged hit collections, new music on "Scarecrow" and "The Lost Sessions" and last year's cover song collection "Blame it All on My Roots." Over the years, there have been live recordings, concert and music video collections. The country songwriter became a pop culture icon, transcending genre to become ...
Garth Brooks is back with his first release of "new" material since 2001's "Scarecrow." (Truth in advertising, his "The Ultimate Hits," which actually is part of the new box set, included four new songs back in 2007).
