"Track 10", originally titled "Left Handshake", is a song by Canadian
Background and content
Skinny Puppy's seventh album, Last Rights, was originally going to end with the song "Left Handshake", which prominently featured a number of samples of Timothy Leary's voice from his 1967 release Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out.[1] Because so many clips of Leary speaking were employed in the song, Skinny Puppy sought him out to ask for permission to use the sound bites.[2] Leary agreed, and so the song was completed. [3] Shortly after that, Henry G. Saperstein, the holder of the rights to the album from which Leary's voice was sampled, threatened to sue the band if they released "Left Handshake".[3] The track was pulled from the album and replaced with "Download",[2] an eleven-minute experimental song that became a critical favorite.[4][5] Some releases of Last Rights preserve blank tenth track where "Left Handshake" should be.[6]
