DAVID GREENE, HOST:
Good morning. I'm David Greene. Fans of the experimental rock band Negativland might want to buy their new album soon because, while supplies last, they get a bonus gift. It is a plastic bag with some of dead band member Don Joyce's cremated remains. There's a photo of the gift - ashes - about two grams, the bag says. In a statement, the band calls this a celebration of Joyce's belief that no idea in art was ever off-limits. They said they're, quote, "pretty sure he would have wanted it this way." You're listening to MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
