Cat Power Appears on New Beck AlbumSaid album might be appearing sooner than you thinkFollowing in the footsteps of Radiohead, Trent Reznor (twice!), the Raconteurs, Gnarls Barkley, and himself, Beck plans to release his new Danger Mouse-produced LP quite quickly-- in the next four to six weeks, to be exact, according to MTV.comUniversal Music Group wouldn\'t confirm anything, but we discovered that one of MTV\'s claims is very much true: the new Beck album will indeed feature contributions from Chan "Cat Power" Marshall. Hopefully in a more notable capacity than Beth Orton on Midnite Vultures, eh?
This sounds like a great pairing, even though I really do hate The Grey Album.
