In My Tribe
''In My Tribe'' is an album by the American alternative rock band 10,000 Maniacs. Released on July 27, 1987 by Elektra Records, it was their second major-label album and their first to achieve large-scale success. John Lombardo, Natalie Merchant's songwriting partner on previous albums, had left the band in 1986, and ''In My Tribe'' saw Merchant begin to collaborate with the other members of the band, most notably with Rob Buck. Controversy In 1989, the band's recording of Cat Stevens' "Peace Train" was removed from the U.S. CD and cassette versions of the album, after comments made by Stevens (by then a Muslim convert, known as Yusuf Islam) that were perceived to be supportive of the fatwa on Salman Rushdie. The song remained on copies released outside the United States. It was later included on the band's 2-CD compilation '' Campfire Songs: The Popular, Obscure and Unknown Recordings'', released on January 24, 2004 by Elektra/Asylum/Rhino Records.
