"Dirt Does Dylan"

The 10-track album includes three new band members: fiddle specialist Ross Holmes; singer-songwriter and bass player Jim Photoglo (who wrote one of the Dirt Band's biggest hits, "Fishin' in the Dark"); and Dirt Band founder Jeff Hanna's son, singer and guitarist Jaime Hanna. Produced and recorded by Ray Kennedy at Room & Board Studio in Nashville, the disc features support from Jason Isbell, The War & Treaty, Steve Earle and Rosanne Cash.

Jeff Hanna on vocals and guitar, Jimmie Fadden on drums and Bob Carpenter on keyboards are also in the band.

The Dirt Band's cover of "I Shall Be Released," which Dylan originally recorded with The Band during their Basement Tapes sessions, is out today. On this version of the tune, sisters Rebecca and Megan Lovell — better known as blues-rock duo Larkin Poe — lend their voices and Megan's lap steel guitar skills to the mix. Bob Carpenter takes the first verse vocals while the Hannas handle guitar duties.

The track list is:
1. Tonight I'll Be Staying Here with You
2. Girl from the North Country
3. It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry
4. Country Pie
5. I Shall Be Released (ft. Larkin Poe)
6. She Belongs to Me
7. Forever Young
8. The Times They Are A-Changin' (featuring Rosanne Cash, Jason Isbell, Steve Earle and The War and Treaty)
9. Don't Think Twice, It's All Right
10. Quinn The Eskimo (The Mighty Quinn)

The group formed in 1966 as a Long Beach, Cal. jug band, scored its first charting single in 1967, and embarked on a ride through folk, country, rock, pop, bluegrass and Americana. The first major hit came in 1971 with the epic "Mr. Bojangles," which, along with support from banjo master Earl Scruggs, opened doors in Nashville. Scruggs, Roy Acuff, Doc Watson, Mother Maybelle Carter and Jimmy Martin would collaborate on the seminal three-disc 1972 release, "Will the Circle Be Unbroken. " "Circle" went triple Platinum, spawned two later volumes, and wound up in the Grammy Hall of Fame.
