The set will also include a previously unreleased recording of the Doors' Jim Morrison reciting his poem "Moonshine Night" and appearances by members of Korn, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Yes and System of a Down.
Prayer Cycle 2: Path to Zero is the sequel to a 1999 compilation which featured performances by James Taylor, Alanis Morrissette and Linda Ronstadt. Both discs were masterminded by composer Jonathan Elias, who has been working on this project for five years.
