NEW YORK (Amnesty International) - Radiohead and Coldplay are among the artists who have contributed album tracks to Music For Human Rights, a CD compilation issued by human rights organization Amnesty International USA. The disc, which is not being sold in stores, is only available through the Amnesty website to those who become members with a donation of fifteen dollars or more. Among the other artists appearing on the album are Badly Drawn Boy and alt-country rocker Ryan Adams. Perhaps the most interesting track comes from Revboy. According to the Amnesty website, Revboy is a "collective of musicians and artists dedicated to preserving free speech, artistic expression and human rights. The participants have been responsible for the sale of millions of CDs, yet for politically sensitive reasons choose to remain anonymous. They have chosen Amnesty International USA to be the first recipient of a publicly distributed track."
