Will The Circle Be Unbroken: Volume III

[ Capitol Records / 2 CD ]

Release Date: Monday 16 December 2002

New chapter in the enduring story of American roots music

Thirty years ago, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band made musical history with a tribute to country and bluegrass pioneers that introduced a new generation of listeners to now-departed legends like Maybelle Carter, Roy Acuff and Merle Travis. Today, as the "O Brother" phenomenon builds on the groundwork of 1972's Will The Circle Be Unbroken and its award-winning 1989 sequel, Will The Circle Be Unbroken Vol. II, the Dirt Band makes magic once again with Will The Circle Be Unbroken Vol. III.

Will The Circle Be Unbroken Vol. III's 28 selections add a new turn to the traditional music circle, bringing new life to signature songs and old favorites while adding a handful of more recent creations to the genre.

Featuring reunions with guests from both of the earlier albums as well as appearances by new friends and family members (including Tom Petty, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson & Alison Krauss), Circle III carries the tradition into the 21st century, writing a new chapter in the enduring story of American roots music.
