"Given that Bob Dylan and the Band recorded more than 100 tracks when they were holed up in rural Woodstock in 1967 (many of which have only just been released as an expanded Basement Tapes package) it's extraordinary that Dylan had written lyrics to a further 40 songs, brought to life here by T Bone Burnett. The producer has assembled a cast of worthies - Elvis Costello, Marcus Mumford, Jim James (My Morning Jacket), Rhiannon Giddens (Carolina Chocolate Drops) and Taylor Goldsmith (Dawes) - to put music to Dylan's unpublished lyrics".
