This latest album features twelve new recordings of songs by legends and unsung heroes including Merle Haggard, Allen Toussaint, The Everly Brothers, Anne Briggs, Geeshie Wiley, Bert Jansch and more. Other highlights include a Plant-Burnett original, 鈥淗igh and Lonesome,鈥 and the classic 鈥淐an鈥檛 Let Go,鈥 written by Randy Weeks and first recorded by Lucinda Williams.
Robert will be going on tour with Alison next year - dates and times to be announced very soon. The next two tracks he has chosen come from The Byrds and Joni Mitchell.
