Keith Richards and Tom Waits have released a new duet. The rock legends offered up a cover of the folk ballad “Shenandoah,” which is included on a new album called Son of Rogue’s Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys.
The two-disc set is set for release on February 19, and was executive produced by actor Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinski. It also boasts appearances by Iggy Pop, Nick Cave, Patti Smith and Sean Lennon.
The album is a follow up to Hal Wilner’s 2006 release Rogue’s Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs and Chanteys. He explained:
“About a year ago I secretly thought we would never finish. As easy as volume 1 was to coordinate, this was the opposite, but it is a very different record than volume 1. This one seems . . . happier? Not as much about torture, sodomy and death, which will disappoint some but, we don’t need to repeat ourselves do we?”
