God Don't Never Change: The Songs Of Blind Willie Johnson is an eleven-track all-star tribute album that features inspired interpretations of the iconic slide guitarist/vocalist's most seminal material. Tom Waits, Lucinda Williams, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi, Cowboy Junkies, Blind Boys Of Alabama (accompanied by Jason Isbell on guitar), Sinéad O'Connor, Luther Dickinson with The Rising Star Fife & Drum Band, Maria McKee, and Rickie Lee Jones all deliver deeply moving reinventions of Johnson's otherworldly "gospel blues" music.   

From Tom Waits' virtual embodiment of Johnson himself on The Soul Of A Man and John The Revelator to Derek Trucks' and Susan Tedeschi's reverent reading of Keep Your Lamp Trimmed And Burning to Lucinda Williams' slide guitar-fueled lament in Nobody's Fault But Mine to Luther Dickinson's spirited take on Bye And Bye I'm Going To See The King (with The Rising Star Fife & Drum Band) to the Blind Boys Of Alabama's soul-baring Mother's Children Have A Hard Time, this record is packed with incomparable recordings that speak as much to the greatness of the performers as they do the enduring legacy of Blind Willie Johnson.
