Live Aid DVD

In case you haven't heard, those amazing Live Aid concerts in 1985 are now available on DVD, and the set is absolutely a collectors item. Both the Philadelphia and London concerts are included, altho not in their entirety; there are four discs full of footage, though, including a beautiful set by Sade and a heartbreaking set by U2, plus dozens of other performances by artists still around (Madonna, Paul McCartney) and those who stayed in the mid-80s (Ultravox, Howard Jones). Plus, the proceeds STILL benefit famine relief in Africa (sadly, still a tragedy). Cheers once again to Bob Geldof. www.liveaiddvd.net

Honey thank you for posting a comment! Those DVDs are so terrific - they'll take ages to watch in their entirety, but what a treat. And still for a good cause...
