about

Four songs plus two videos, with 50% of all proceeds going to Movement for Black Lives -- m4bl.org -- and the Native American Rights Fund -- www.narf.org

Three American Ambulance tracks: Rollin' Thunder (from the album STRAY), Wake Up to War and a Memphis Soul ballad version of What's So Funny 'Bout Peace, Love, and Understanding -- featuring Scott Aldrich on lead guitar and vocals, Tim Reedy on bass, keys, and vocals, Mighty Joe Dessereau on drums, Rob Gottstein and Dann Baker on bass, and guest vocalist Florence Dore!

The title track is bundled with a short music film produced and directed by Pete, in the wake of the anti-racist uprising after George Floyd's murder.

There's also a deep cut from Pete's archives, Slip & Slide, recorded in Summer 1986 in NYC by Pete's band Step Outside, with Eric Hubel, Doug Ryan, and Paul Henshaw. A video for Slip & Slide can be found bundled in the package, inspired mostly by the events of Charlottesville.
