The new album was produced by Ethan Johns and Tom’s son Mark Woodward. The first single Todd Snider’s ‘Talking Reality Television Blues’ will give you an indication of where this record is heading.

“I was there when TV started – didn’t know I’d become a part of it – but it could be that its power is to remind us how wonderful, crazy and inventive we are, but also how scary the reality it reflects can be,” explains Tom Jones about the song.

The album also features songs by Bob Dylan (One More Cup of Coffee For The Road’, Cat Stevens (Popstar) and Tommy Joe White (Old Mother Earth).

1) I Won’t Crumble With You If You Fall (Bernice Johnson Reagon)
