Grassroots Real World Album

Grassroots plans are being developed to make an album that will be recorded in various stages at a combination of home-based studios and at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios. The Real World community of organizations and businesses has long been a supporter of world music and awareness, and the studio manager has graciously agreed to provide a discounted studio rate for access to their world-class facilities. The purpose of the album project is to raise awareness about One Laptop Per Child, invite grassroots participation in the OLPC community, and to serve as a fundraiser to help purchase laptops under the "Give Many" program. Hopefully a series of A-list music artists will get involved to help it have a broader appeal, but it will happen regardless.
