My, my, my. There's a tear in my beer thinking about this. Hank's unfinished songs written in various songwriting notebooks left in his car have been kept from prying eyes until now. The producer Mary Martin gathered Nashville's most celebrated and talented songwriters and asked them to choose a song for the album and finish it, applying their own melodies. Contributors include Bob Dylan, Jakob Dylan, Patty Loveless, Vince Gill and Rodney Crowell, Hank's descendent Holly Williams, Jack White, Lucinda Williams, Alan Jackson, Norah Jones, Levon Helm, and Sheryl Crow. I assure you that we'll discover new Hank classics. Look for The Notebooks of Hank Williams on October 4 on vinyl, CD, and digital release.
