CBS Records is set to release a specially produced soundtrack for the television show “Hawaii Five-0″ Oct. 4.

“Hawaii Five-0: Original Songs From The Television Series” features new and previously unreleased tracks from recording artists including Bob Dylan, Train, Goo Goo Dolls, The Swell Season, Switchfoot, Jimmy Cliff, Ziggy Marley and ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro that are available exclusively on this soundtrack, according to a news release.

Producers of the series listened to dozens of submitted tracks before deciding on the ones best suited for this season’s upcoming story lines, so this collection is made up of mostly brand new and previously unreleased tracks that will be woven into upcoming episodes this season.

The previously unreleased Bob Dylan song “Don’t Ever Take Yourself Away” in particular is from recording sessions in the early 1980s and has been newly mixed and mastered for this soundtrack.

Also included is the first commercial release of the “Hawaii Five-0 Main Title Theme” recorded for the update of the classic series in 2010, as well as a suite of the show’s score “Book ‘em Danno,” produced and arranged by Brian Tyler and Keith Power.

“Closer,” by Corinne Bailey Rae and the Hawaiian standard “Hi’ilawe” by John Cruz from the first season of the show are also on the soundtrack.
