Man! This is a messed up CD with a potpourri of styles all performed by a guy called John Layne. Common factor in all the songs is the classic rock and John's recognisable vocals. But the rock is played with all sorts of flavors, like Jazz, folk and Latin. And few songs have heavier elements (like Tying Up The Devil), but nothing is essentially hard music. This is laid back music, rooted in the seventies and early eighties. A track like Sing A Song is rather a tune to play as background music on a hot summer evening while sitting on a terrace. The singing is modest, sometimes more in a spoken fashion. Lyrically John Layne gets inspiration from his faith which is also clear only by reading song titles like I'll Praise You and Jesus Saves. Welcome To The Soul Farm contains ten songs with a total of 44 minutes and some minutes. The music is nice but not entirely convincing.
