One song, “Campaigner”, recorded in Boston on Nov. 22, 1976, has already been released.
The collection was put together by director Cameron Crowe producer and photographer Joel Bernstein, who both contributed to the liner notes.
“Songs for Judy” will release Nov. 30 in the U.S. for CD and digital versions, and Dec. 14 for vinyl. Pre-orders are open now, and come with an instant download of “Campaigner”. JB
