Prior to the Disney collection, he produced"Amarcord Nino Rota" in 1981,"That's The Way I Feel Now: A Tribute to Thelonious Monk" in 1984 and"Lost in the Stars: The Music of Kurt Weill" a year later, employing guests ranging from Deborah Harry to Wynton and Bradford Marsalis and John Zorn.
His last major compilations came in 2006 and again in 2013 in the form of pirate-themed"Rogues Gallery" albums, which featured Bono, Nick Cave, Richard Thompson, Sting, Bryan Ferry, John C. Reilly, and the pairings of Michael Stipe with Courtney Love and Patti Smith with Johnny Depp. In October 2018 Willner was the subject of his own tribute show, which took place at a small venue in Brooklyn. The concert, covered by Variety, featured guests including Laurie Anderson and David Johansen, with taped salutes from Cave, guitarist Bill Frisell and singer Diamanda Galas.
