“I always felt like a Hank Williams song was like a cornstalk that just grew right out of the ground,” says singer-songwriter Rodney Crowell, remarking on the universality of the country icon’s music.

Check out this great trailer for The Lost Notebooks, the album that finds Crowell, Bob Dylan, Jack White, Merle Haggard, Lucinda Williams, Norah Jones and more turning Williams’ unfinished lyrics into modern country classics. The compilation is due October 4 on Bob Dylan’s Egyptian Records imprint.
