Izdanje uključuje do sada neobjavljenu verziju Dylanove ‘If Not For You’ i još 35 pjesama koje su snimljene na sessionima šezdesetih i ranih sedamdesetih.
U “The Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum”, Nashville, u tijeku je i izložba “Dylan, Cash, and the Nashville Cats: A New Music City Presented by Citi,” koja traje do 31.12. 2016.
Dylan, Cash, and the Nashville Cats “A New Music City” istražuje vezu Dylana i Casha, između popa, rocka, folk i country glazbe kroz esencijalne snimke koje definiraju američku eru i senzibilitet koji nastavljaju utjecati na suvremenu kulturu diljem svijeta.
Bob Dylan je u Nashville stigao 1966, nakon čega je nastao “Blonde On Blonde”. Dylan i Cash su zacementirali njihovo prijateljstvo 1964. na Newport Folk festivalu, a ponovno su se ujedinili 1969. u Nashvilleu.
“The Johnny Cash Show” je okupio country, pop i rock glazbenike na TV i stvorio novu publiku. Uglavnom zahvaljujući Dylanu i Cashu te glazbenicima koji su došli za njima u Nashville, Nashville je posato centar glazbe.
