It was released on March 10, 2015, by Capitol Nashville as the last entry in Bryan's ''Spring Break'' collection. The EP is available in a full version featuring five new tracks ("My Ol' Bronco", "Games", "Spring Breakdown", "Checkin' Out", "You and the Beach") in addition to the six from previous EP ''Spring Break 6...Like We Ain't Ever'' (2014), or a 5 song version featuring only the new tracks. Two songs from the extended play — "Games" and "Spring Breakdown" — were released as promotional singles. As of March 2015, the former and latter have each sold 54,000 and 31,000 copies in the US. The album debuted in the US at No. 3 on the ''Billboard'' 200 and at No. 1 on the ''Billboard'' Top Country Albums, his fifth chart leader on the latter.〔 ==Critical reception== 〕 | rev2 = Country Weekly | rev2Score = C+ }} Giving it 3 out of 5 stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic wrote that "Sonically, the songs from the sixth and seventh EPs intertwine nicely — it's all bright and cheerful, sounding warm and open-hearted even in the shadow of the production's excessive gleam — but, appropriately enough, all the new songs find Bryan looking back over his shoulder at all the fun he's had over the years… Nevertheless, it's those five songs (the five-song version ) that provide a nice farewell to Bryan's time as the ringleader of Spring Break, and it's good to see that he's chosen to bring this era to a tidy close instead of letting it slip into memory."〔 Bob Paxman of ''Country Weekly'' rated the album "C+", saying that "There is nothing remotely timeless about them…the songs are meant to speak to the moment, and the lyrics…reflect that." He thought that "Games" was the only song that "has any real meat to it", and praised the production, "which allows Luke plenty of space to operate."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spring Break...Checkin' Out」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
