====''Women + Country''==== In 2009, Dylan visited T Bone Burnett at a studio where Burnett was producing the soundtrack for the film [[Crazy Heart]]. Burnett asked Dylan if he had any new songs to show him. The only song Dylan had was one he had written for [[Glen Campbell]]'s forthcoming album, ''[[Ghost on the Canvas]]'', called "Nothing But the Whole Wide World." Burnett was impressed by the song and asked Dylan to come up with fifteen additional songs so they could put an album together. Dylan came back to Burnett six weeks later with the songs and in 2009 they recorded Dylan's second solo album, ''[[Women + Country]]''.<ref>{{cite magazine|title=Dylan Performs With Neko Case, Talks "Women + Country"|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/jakob-dylan-performs-with-neko-case-talks-women-country-20100405|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=April 5, 2010|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=December 24, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141224234347/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/jakob-dylan-performs-with-neko-case-talks-women-country-20100405|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Jakob Dylan β Soundcheck|url=http://soundcheck.wnyc.org/story/89676-jakob-dylan/|website=WNYC|access-date=November 16, 2014|date=August 4, 2010|archive-date=December 19, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141219020651/http://soundcheck.wnyc.org/story/89676-jakob-dylan/|url-status=live}}</ref> [[File:Jakob Dylan at Mr & Mrs T and Rachael Ray's Feedback Festival at SXSW 2010.jpg|thumb|left|upright|Dylan performing at SXSW in 2010]] ''Women + Country'' had a decidedly fuller sound than ''Seeing Things'', thanks to the horns, [[pedal steel guitar|pedal steel]] and fiddle that were prominently featured throughout the album.
