LISTEN: Michael Stipe duets with Courtney Love
The old pals team up for Johnny Depp's album of sea shanties...
We've had offerings from Keef and Iggy, Shane and Gavin Friday already, and now we have another track from Son Of Rogue’s Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys.
The project is the brainchild of noted screen pirate Johnny Depp, director Gore Verbinski and producer Hal Wilner.
Former REMer Michael Stipe tackles 'Rio Grande', with a little help from his friend (and former Hot Press snapper) Courtney Love.
Hear it below.
