Shooter Jennings Recruits Marilyn Manson For New Tribute Album
. (Classic Rock) Shooter Jennings has revealed he's working on a tribute album to dance music pioneer Giorgio Moroder. He says the results - which feature guest star Marilyn Manson - have a vibe like Queens Of The Stone Age. Italian producer, DJ and performer Moroder is credited as being the driving force behind the disco movement in the 70s, producing tracks for Donna Summer, The Three Degrees, Bonnie Tyler and Sparks. And Jennings reveals while the album covers tracks made famous due to Moroder's influence, he's recording them in a completely different style. He tells Classic Rock: "It's an all-live band but we're doing all Giorgio tunes - stuff from 1977's From Here To Eternity and things like that. To me it sounds like Queens Of The Stone Age when you have a live band doing all his stuff. "We have fiddle and all kinds of interesting instruments involved. I think Classic Rock's audience will like the record because I'm not doing an electronic dance music thing - it's very much a live performance format." Manson lends his vocals to David Bowie's track "Cat People (Putting Out The Fire)," co-written by Moroder for the 1982 Nastassja Kinski film Cat People. Bowie re-recorded it for his hit "Let's Dance" album. Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
