The latest soundtrack assembled by uber-producer T-Bone Burnett features numerous renditions of traditional ballads performed by Americana elite like Alison Krauss, Tim O'Brien and Dirk Powell. The highlight, though, is the recasting of The White Stripe's Jack White as an acoustic country blues musician. Is there an Oscar for "Best Supporting Musician"?
