WNYC's Public Song Project invites anyone to record their own musical adaptation of a work in the public domain.

And now some of the music created for the project is available on a new album. Public Songbook Project (Super Deluxe) is available to stream digitally, for free. It features exclusive contributions from musicians like Rhiannon Giddens, Rosanne Cash, The Lemon Twigs, and Bela Fleck. You can stream it on Bandcamp and also get your hands on a curated version on vinyl.

Simon Close, Producer of the Public Song Project joins Weekend Edition host David Furst to explain and play a few highlights.
