    Nik Kershaw in my own opinion, is one of the most underrated guitarist, singer/songwriters this country has ever produced.
    He deserved so much more recognision for his work.
    👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

    I was lucky enough to have the day off, my new stereo TV hooked thru my Marantz 2265 receiver. Out out from the TV into aux input. What a great 13 hours of nusic.

      I was born in 82 and wish i was old enough to go and appreciate live aid. It was about 33 years later that I was able to see Nik Kershaw live.

    I was eighteen then, still remember rather brightly the echoes of atmosphere of the day. Blessed times when playing live was golden standard! Listen to this perfect sound, splendid musician and composer Kershaw we did not appreciated enough back then, but today we must admit his musical language reflects such a brilliant originality and richness of harmonic invention. I own first two records of him, still put them on from time to time and admire the parts he invented to be there in his songs. I even infected my daughter to analyse specialty of his music in comparison to rest of music at the time, though we found also many interesting songs by other artists that had missed the charts heavily and deserve to be paid attention to owing to its creativity and freshness of ideas. We are both musicians now and appriciate quality music very much...

    Comparing this new version to what was actually broadcast ‘Live’ on the day, I can see footage has been replaced at 1:30 where the broadcast accidentally switched to the studio for a few seconds. They’ve replaced ‘the blip’ with footage panning across the crowd. The sound mix is much better in this new footage too. A more ‘complete’ Live Aid DVD/BluRay is surely in the making?

      there will never be a complete blu-ray coming. have you seen led zeppelin's performance? i love led zeppelin but... it was terrible. i don't blame them for not wanting the performances on DVD/blu-ray. they were shit.

    Damn, this version is awesome. There were some things off in the original one.
    The synths went into the guitar solo in a strange way. You can barely hear it in this version.
    The guitar solo is finally audible
    The falsetto backgrounds sound proper and not so... in a way cringy.
    How/where did you get this mix? It is awesome.

      Thank you BBC for doing the multitracks.

      Pues si, algunos músicos en el Live Aid tuvieron presentaciones más cortas, hasta a Queen les sorprendió que varios terminaban con mucho tiempo de sobra, cuando ellos apenas y si les alcanzó, terminaron 2 minutos después de sus 20 minutos permitidos 😅😆

      It was a style especially in pop stars back in the mid 80s you’d be surprised there are few more acts at live aid that had something similar going on. Sting had something like that going on too during his set.
