The Boot gathers today's country music news headlines from around the web.

Jason Aldean has his 11th career residency in the country singles' penthouse. His hit song, "The Only Way I Know," featuring Luke Bryan and Eric Church, is No. 1 on both the Billboard and Mediabase charts. "Having Eric and Luke come sing on this track with me was one of the highlights of recording the [Night Train] album," says Jason. "We are buddies off the road and outside of the music business, so this one is extra special for me. After my first No. 1 song back in 2006, I worried I may never have another one. Thankfully, we've been able to rack up a few of them in a row recently, and I have a lot of people to thank for that."

This week's new music releases, out Feb. 5 (click on album titles for more information): Tim McGraw, Two Lanes of Freedom (Big Machine); Holly Williams, The Highway (Georgiana) (with special guests Dierks Bentley, Gwyneth Paltrow); John Corbett, Leaving Nothin' Behind (Funbone); The SteelDrivers, Hammer Down (Rounder); Richard Thompson, Electric (produced by Buddy Miller); Townes Van Zandt, Sunshine Boy: The Undheard Studio Sessions and Demos 1971-1972 (Omnivore).
