Mar. 9, 2010
A shelved 15-year-old compilation with rare tracks by Rage Against the Machine, Beastie Boys and Queens of the Stone Age/Them Crooked Vultures singer-guitarist Josh Homme has found new life on the Internet. Exiled in the Land of the Free: An Album for Leonard Peltier was scheduled to come out in 1995. It was supposed to raise funds for Peltier and the effort to get his murder conviction overturned, but it never was released. A man who says he was "an A-and-R assistant at Sony Music" found the unmastered version of the album in his files and has posted it for free download at Sites.Google.com/Site/ExiledInTheLandOfTheFree.
Peltier is a member of the American Indian Movement who was convicted of the 1975 murders of two F-B-I agents. Rage's "Freedom" is about Peltier. |
