The “Rough and Rowdy Ways” tour was originally billed from 2021-2024 but continues to be extended. He’ll turn 85 on May 24.

“More than a music biography, this is a front-row seat to the forces that shaped an era,” says a press release on the title.

The title features 11 additional performances not included in the original 2024 broadcast.

He’ll playing alongside his longtime six-piece band, The Noisemakers.

NBC’s original 2018 broadcast earned five Emmy Awards. The classic rock legend was joined by John Legend and Sara Bareilles.

The 3-CD collection of 96 tracks includes such favorites as the Seekers’ “Georgy Girl,” Tom Jones’ “Thunderball,” and Lulu’s “To Sir With Love.”

Due to the limitations of vinyl at the time, only seven tracks from the show made it onto the original LP.

The set includes all of the band’s studio albums, plus two soundtracks, solo works and rarities.

The first single from the new project is “It’s Been Too Long,” which features vocals from Sarah Jarosz and Molly Tuttle.

American Dream (The Mainman Recordings 1976-1977) also contains rare bonus tracks and previously unreleased material.
