Producer Hal Willner has made a specialty of matching maverick artists, often in unexpected pairings, with surprising material; in 2006, he offered up a supreme example with the first volume of Rogues Gallery, hatched up on the set of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man"s Chest with actor Johnny Depp and director Gore Verbinski, who serve as executive producers of both volumes. Son of Rogues Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys features exclusive performances by Tom Waits, Keith Richards, Michael Stipe, Patti Smith, Frank Zappa, Iggy Pop, Richard Thompson, and many many more.
