Track 10
Encyclopedia
"Track 10", originally called "Left Handshake", is a single
by the Canadian
post-industrial band Skinny Puppy
from their seventh album Last Rights
. The song features samples from the Timothy Leary
album Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out
which the band failed to receive clearance of from Henry Saperstein
, the copyright owner of the recordings in question. Consequently, "Left Handshake" was omitted from Last Rights, but later released as a limited edition CD called "Track 10" in 2000. Bootlegs of the song were highly sought after by fans before this release and because of the copyright problem, "Track 10" has been limited to around 1000 copies worldwide.
Some releases of the Last Rights have a blank track 10 where the song should be, whereas others are mastered with the space cut out, thus rendering the album with 10 tracks, the tenth of which is "Download".
