Stone Temple Pilots Release Cover of the Beatles' "Revolution" As Benefit Single

October 31, 2001 – Stone Temple Pilots have recorded their version of the Beatles' classic "Revolution" for a special benefit single. The band will be donating all of their record royalties and Atlantic Records will be donating all of its profits from the sale of the single to the Twin Towers Fund, which provides assistance to or on behalf of the victims and families of victims of the World Trade Center disaster. The enhanced CD single will arrive in stores November 27th.

Stone Temple Pilots first performed "Revolution" October 2nd as part of the TNT television special, "Come Together: A Night For John Lennon's Words and Music, Dedicated To New York City and Its People." October 6th, the band entered New York City's Avatar Studios to record their rendition of Lennon's anthem. The "Revolution" enhanced CD single will include the self-produced new recording, as well as exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of the recording session.

"Revolution" is scheduled to hit rock and alternative radio outlets nationwide this week. In addition, a video of STP's performance at "Come Together" has been made available to all video outlets, including MTV, MTV2, and VH1.

Stone Temple Pilots' most recent Atlantic album, the RIAA gold-certified Shangri-LA DEE DA, was released in June 2001. The band is currently on the road headlining the Family Values Tour 2001, alongside Staind, Linkin Park, and Static X.
