Rage Against The Machine - Radio Free L.A. Los Angeles, CA January 20, 1997
FM Broadcast @320
Tom Morello was MC for a 2 hour show that was broadcasted on FM. More
than 50 US commercial radio stations carry the two-hour debut of "Radio
Free L.A." The broadcast includes two live sets by a band comprised of
Tom Morello (guitar), Zack de la Rocha (vocal), Flea (bass, of Red Hot
Chili Peppers), and Steven Perkins (drums, of Porno For Pyros). They
kick out the jams (Evil Empire) on this performance and re-work the
songs. This performance may have been recorded at Westwood One Studios.
Radio Free L.A. was announced to be broadcast January 20, 1997: Inauguration day for president Clinton. A few scattered radio stations transmitted the program, and it was also presented as a streaming broadcast on the RATM website. From Tom:
-"That election had resulted in one of the lowest voter turnouts in the history of the country, as more and more Americans came to realize that their government was not in their hands, but in the hands of big business. Radio Free L.A. provided a musical and political gathering point for the majority of Americans—and young people especially—who rightly felt left out of the 'democratic process.'"
Guests that made appearanced included: Michael Moore, Emily Hodgson, Leonard Peltier, Chuck D, Mumia Abu-Jamal, UNITE, Noam Chomsky, Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls, and Subcomandante Marcos of the Zapatistas. Beck, Cypress Hill, and Zack de la Rocha, Tom Morello, Flea and Stephen Perkins jammed out songs in between interviews and presentations.
Although Rage Against The Machine is listed as an artist only Tom and Zack de La Rocha appear. Brad Wilk and Timmy C are replaced with Stephen Perkins and Flea.
Flea and Stephen Perkins are credited as Members of; Red Hot Chili Peppers, Porno For Pyros. On the website they were credited as Members of Pearl Jam.
Considering the outhouse fire going on today, this is more than appropriate.

Alas. I have previously committed myself to an afternoon tomorrow at...the opera. Carmen, to be precise. No football playoffs for me. So, in preparation for such auditory wonders as only opera can provide, I need to clean out my ears. Back in the VW archives I go for an effective therapy: Rage Against the Machine and Stone Temple Pilots.
