New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) A rare Jim Morrison poem is featured on the new celebrity charity album Prayer Cycle 2: Path To Zero (Across The Universe Records, 5.10). The untitled poem is read by Morrison and was originally recorded by late Doors producer Paul Rothchild.

When EMMY-winning 'Prayer Cycle 2' composer Jonathan Elias learned of the previously unreleased recording, he immediately took action to obtain the rights. "It means a great deal to me to be able to use Jim Morrison's work, as a fan and someone who has a profound respect for his legacy," said Elias.

The subject of the poem is a wrenching account of the plight of Native Americans in Los Alamos, NM.

'Prayer Cycle 2' will be donated to Global Zero, an international organization dedicated to the abolition of nuclear arms. Out this spring, PC2 is already being lauded for its all-star cast of celebrity guests including Sting, Sinead O'Connor, Robert Downey, Jr. and Angelique Kidjo as well as its sweeping, genre-defying sound.
