Tom Waits & Keith Richards Pair Up for New Track'Shenandoah' -

A new collection of songs entitled 'Son ofRogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs &Chanteys' will feature a new track composed byTom Waits and Keith Richards.

The battle-hardened rockers teamed up to record'Shenandoah,' currently available to stream at NPR (via HenneMusic).

The compilation is due on 19th February and, asides frm Richardsand Waits, will also feature Nick Cave,Bryan Ferry, Sting,Bono, Jolie Hollan,Jarvis Cocker, Lou Reed,Dr.John & Iggy Pop amongstothers.

The two-disc album is a follow up to Hal Willner's 2006 production'Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs and Chanteys.'

Willner dreamt up the idea for Rogue's Gallery compilations withactor Johnny Depp and film director Gore Verbinski whilst filmingPirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.

"About a year ago I secretly thought we would neverfinish," says Willner. "As easy as volume 1 was tocoordinate, this was the opposite, but it is a very differentrecord than volume 1. This one seems…happier? Not as much abouttorture, sodomy and death, which will disappoint some but, we don'tneed to repeat ourselves do we?"
