Bob Dylan has called him his “long-lost father.” He is a living link to Woody Guthrie, Brownie McGhee, and the beat poets. Mick Jagger, Lou Reed, Van Morrison, Paul McCartney, Kris Kristoffersen, Bruce Springsteen and Beck all cite him as an inspiration. Now more than ever, Ramblin' Jack Elliott stands alone, a crucial reminder of a proud and dying American tradition – a self-made wayfarer whose fifty-plus years of experience resonate in every note he sings. His new ANTI- release I Stand Alone is perhaps the most intimate recording of his career, cradled by a family of guests that include Lucinda Williams, David Hidalgo, Flea, Corin Tucker of Sleater-Kinney, and Wilco guitarist Nels Cline. Elliott offers an introspective look back at his career, through meditative takes on favorites like “Old Blue,” and untried material like the Carter Family's "Engine 143” and Hoagy Carmichael's "Hong Kong Blues." At age 74 and after forty albums, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott still has plenty of hunt left in him.
