It will feature 21 tracks. Many of the songs are Les' personal favorites and they include guest appearances from Keith Richards, Billy F. Gibbons, Steve Miller, Slash and many more.

    Additionally, there is also a documentary that shows behind-the-scenes footage from the making of the album and boasts interviews with the musicians on it. The release date is set for September 11.
