"&lt;p&gt;In 2009, Los Angeles singer-songwriter Pete Yorn released a collaboration with Omaha tunesmith Mike Mogis and a disc of duets with Scarlett Johansson. His latest, a team-up with Pixies leader Frank Black recorded in just five days, is the most appealing of the three: a stripped-raw set of guitar-driven stompers sung in a direct, desperate yowl. &amp;quot;Paradise Cove I&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Always&amp;quot; chug along with a Nineties alt-rock flair, though Yorn saves room for gentler tunes like the lovelorn, acoustic-strummed &amp;quot;Stronger Than.&amp;quot; But while Black may have brought out Yorn&amp;apos;s inner rocker, he hasn&amp;apos;t transformed him into a poet: &amp;quot;Rock crowd, throw your arms around me,&amp;quot; he sings earnestly on &amp;quot;Rock Crowd.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;I feel glad when y&amp;apos;all surround me.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;\r\n&lt;wm:embed type=\"related\"&gt;&lt;/wm:embed&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=\"../../../music/photos/17383/111800\"&gt;See the hottest live shots of the week&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
