hey beautiful ig lovers,

i actually learned about this on the patty griffin list -- apparently, an
organization either called "utne" or affiliated with someone named "utne" or
in memory of someone named "utne" (it doesn't really matter :)) is putting
together a compilation for release sometime fairly soon, i believe... oh,
hell, i'll just let you guys see part of her original message:

>from erin@utne.com :
>greetings from minneapolis!
> i'm currently working on putting together a track list for an utne
>reader cd compilation, to be released by rykodisk, entitled:
>"storytellers". we've come up with an impressive list of
>singer/songwriters - dar williams, emmylou harris, ben harper, kelly
>willis, lyle lovett, bonnie raitt, ani, tom waits, beth orton, natalie
>merchant, john hiatt, shawn colvin, me'shell n'degeocello, among others.

luckily for us, not only are they adding patty griffin and van morrison to
that list, erin wrote back to say that ig is on there too!! i don't really
know any other information -- sorry, i'm just a humble messenger -- but if i
hear anything else i'll let you know! if you guys have any more questions,
my guess would be that erin@utne.com would be the place to write, but since
the project is still in the very beginning stages, she probably won't know
much more yet.

shannon :)
(by the way, did i mention that not only am i done with that blasted thesis,
i only have six more days of undergrad classes?! yay!!!!)

subject: [ig-news] more info on "no boundaries"

"no boundaries" album, to benefit the refugees of kosovo, will be released
june 15 on epic records; pearl jam's "last kiss" is the first single, in
stores june 8

new york--(entertainment wire)--may 12, 1999--

album to feature rare, live and unreleased tracks by rage against

the machine, neil young, pearl jam, korn, alanis morissette, tori

amos, the wallflowers, oasis, and more

on june 15, 1999, epic records will release "no boundaries" - a unique
compilation created for the benefit of the refugees of kosovo.

the 16-track album will feature rare, live and previously unreleased
special versions of songs by some of the most popular and acclaimed artists
on the international music scene. the artists confirmed to appear on "no
boundaries" are pearl jam, rage against the machine, alanis morrisette, neil
young, oasis, korn, black sabbath, indigo girls, ben folds five, peter
gabriel, the wallflowers, sarah mclachlan, bush, tori amos, and jamiroquai.

pearl jam's version of "last kiss," the 1964 hit by j. frank wilson &
the cavaliers, will be the first single from "no boundaries." the single
arrives in stores june 8 and includes the b-side "soldier of love," a live
version of the song written and first recorded by arthur alexander. "last
kiss" and "soldier of love" were released initially as the 1998 pearl jam fan
club christmas single and distributed free to fan club members only. both
tracks are included on "no boundaries."

pearl jam manager kelly curtis says: "pearl jam is proud to offer this
small contribution to help improve the appalling conditions of the refugees
suffering from this human rights tragedy in kosovo."

in advance of the album release date and based on projected sales of "no
boundaries," epic records will make an initial donation of $1,000,000 to be
distributed among three international aid organizations--care, oxfam, and
doctors without borders--all of which are working now to provide food,
shelter, medical care and other basic needs to the kosovo refugees. further
donations derived from worldwide sales of "no boundaries" will be made to
these organizations.

"this album is the first collective response by the international music
community to the crisis in kosovo," says david glew, chairman of the epic
records group. "'no boundaries' is an outstanding collection of music,
created in support of a vital cause."
