Notes


Nonesuch Celebrates Woody Guthrie Centennial with "Mermaid Avenue: The Complete Sessions,"

On the acclaimed Mermaid Avenue albums, Billy Bragg and Wilco put music to lyrics by folk legend Woody Guthrie for which he had not written music or made recordings. Tweedy and Bragg were "the perfect pair to conclude that Guthrie ... was a prophetic rock-and-roller with a whole lot to say," said the New York Times. On Record Store Day, April 21, Nonesuch did release Mermaid Avenue: The Complete Sessions, which includes the original two volumes of Mermaid Avenue ; a third volume with 17 previously unreleased recordings from those sessions.
