The Works, Jonatha Brooke's seventh solo release, is a full-length album primarily of previously unheard lyrics by Woody Guthrie, set to original music written and performed by Brooke.

"[3] She liked his poetic love songs like "My Sweet and Bitter Bowl" and spiritual deeper tunes like "My Battle"[3] and loved Guthrie's "full spectrum of craziness" as she described his writings.

The album also includes two songs fully written by Brooke.

All songs written by Woody Guthrie (lyrics) and Jonatha Brooke (music), except where indicated.

Davy Knowles - guitar and vocals on "Taste of Danger"
