Other artists lending their vocals to covers are Winger's Kip Winger, Slaughter's Mark Slaughter, King's X's Doug Pinnick and WWE professional wrestler Chris Jericho. The first pressing of the album will include a 40-minute DVD featuring behind-the-scenes footage, performances and interviews with many of the album's participants.

Yes, that would rule, however, so would THIS from Lemmy:



LEMMY, SLIM JIM & DANNY B., the rockabilly project featuring MOTÖRHEAD's Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister, STRAY CATS' Slim Jim Phantom and THE ROCKATS' Danny B. Harvey, filmed their January 13 performance at The Cat Club in Hollywood, California for an upcoming DVD, due later in the year.
