Live Aid wasn't the 1st one!

Ofcourse Live Aid was awesome, but Bob Geldof wasn't the 1st artist who wanted to help through music and concerts.... george Harrison did it also back in 1971. the concert for Bangladesh, with help from Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Ravi Shankar (daddy of Norah Jones),

Check out the ticket prices - $10, $7.50, $6.50, $5.50, $4.50
for George Harrison, Ravi Shankar, Bob Dylan, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Leon Russell and Badfinger!!!

And today you'll pay $100 dollars or more to see Usher?

Based on some of the talent (or absence of) today, we should roll back prices to those days. nod

$50 to $100 is too much to see any act, I don't care who it is.

This was also album of the year in 1972, was it not? I liked the cover because, unlike a lot of these star-studded benefits, it actually highlighted the cause.

Sadly enough... without knowing a bad thing would happen, the issue of the record is now recent again....Too bad george isn't here anymore, or else he would have done the concert for Sri Lanka or something....

Well, in one way or another, the issue is perpetually relevant - unfortunate. Very wonderful record, though.

That's for sequential stacking on the record changer.
You can play 2 sides in sequence before you have to flip 'em over.
