Febbraio 1969. Bob Dylan si trova a Nashville per ultimare il suo nono album, Nashville Skyline. Viene raggiunto da Johnny Cash e i due danno vita a una session durata due giorni che - fatta eccezione per Girl From the North Country, pubblicata su Nashville Skyline - è rimasta inedita. Fino al 1° novembre almeno: è questa la data di uscita di "Bob Dylan (Featuring Johnny Cash) – Travelin’ Thru, 1967-1969: The Bootleg Series Vol.15".

 Il cofanetto sarà composto da un  triplo cd: oltre alle session con Johnny Cash, potremo ascoltare alcune  versioni alternative di brani contenuti negli album  John Wesley Harding e  Nashville Skyline. Inoltre ci saranno pezzi che Dylan suonò durante il programma tv  The Johnny Cash Show e una serie di  registrazioni casalinghe del cantautore premio nobel per la letteratura. Nel primo disco è presente anche un  inedito, out-take dell'album  Nashville Skyline, dal titolo  Western Road.
