Flaming Elton Tool

01/07/2011
. (Gibson) Steven Drozd, of the Flaming Lips, is set to release his soundtrack to the documentary The Heart is a Drum Machine on January 18, according to Spinner.com.

Perhaps even more interesting than an album's worth of music from the multi-instrumentalist is that soundtrack will feature an intriguing cover. Teaming up with Tool's Maynard James Keenan, Drozd delivers a version of Elton John's "Rocket Man."

The documentary comes from the producers behind the movie Moog and explores the human connection to music. It features appearances by Drozd's fellow Lip Wayne Coyne, former Red Hot Chili Pepper John Frusciante, Spoon's Brit Daniel, Modest Mouse's Isaac Brock, Jimmy Eat World's Jim Adkins, X's John Doe, Limp Bizkit's Wes Borland and more. Actors Fairuza Balk, Elijah Wood and Jason Schwartzman also weigh in on the subject. more on this story
