Compilation music with a message! Actually a few messages but who's counting
Opening spoken word passage from Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys) espouses the philosopy behind Home Alive, which is a non-profit collective dedicated to offering affordable self-defense training, personal safety resources and awareness about how to resist violence.
Other passages of poetry, spoken word are by Jim Carroll, Bobby Miller, Lydia Lunch, Martha Linehan, Jesse Berstein and many others
Don't worry, most of the 2x CD's are full of great music too!
Home Alive - The Art Of Self Defense
Epic Records
Cat# 483820 2
1996
Australian release
CD case, front cover and rear insert are in excellent condition
Both CD media are in very good condition, both have been visually examined under a bright white halogen light source and I can see just one extremely light mark or scratch on CD #2 (outer edge) and CD#1 I cannot see any marks or scratches at all. I then played the compilation album ENTIRELY, both CD's and every single track, and there are no issues with playback on any track.
