Queen - Live Aid - Part 1 (1/5)
Freddie and Brian only later in the evening. 01: Bohemian Rhapsody (Intro) 02: Radio Ga Ga...Freddie Mercury Queen Live Aid Wembley 13.07.1985, London (Wembley Stadium), England
Most of top artists of that time were present at this mega-famous festival and Queen of course had to be there. Each artist got from ten to twenty minutes for their show; no playback or soundcheck were allowed. Queen hesitated because playing without a soundcheck is always a risk. But then they accepted the rules and their 20 minutes of fame came on at 18:44 GMT.
Queen were on top form and not only according to Bob Geldof and Elton John, they stole the show. They played only the intro to Bohemian Rhapsody (the opera part couldn't be played from the tape as playback was forbidden & there wasn't enough time anyway). Instead of the opera part, Radio Ga Ga followed. We Will Rock You was reduced to the first verse (and the final guitar solo) only. Is This The World We Created was performed by Freddie and Brian only later in the evening.

State Of Shock & It's Only Rock'n' Roll...Mick Jagger Tina Turner LIVE AID ミック ジャガー ティナ ターナー
ライヴエイド(LIVE AID)は「1億人の飢餓を救う」というスローガンの下、「アフリカ難民救済」を、目的として行われた、20世紀最大の「チャリティー・コンサート」。「1980年代のウッドストック」とも、一部でいわれていたが、その規模をはるかに超越したものとなった。2004年にDVDとして発売された。
コンサートの目的や結果として
後に、開催者側の金銭がらみのトラブルが発生した。
支援物資が、末端まで行き届かず、アフリカの港の段階での腐敗等、使い物にならなくなった食料も少なくなかった。
アフリカ数カ国では、国家側の政治的目的のために利用されてしまった。
などといった、21世紀現在、国際援助や民間支援に伴う問題点と同様のトラブルが、既に露呈していた。
ウッドストック以来の大規模なイベントであり、その時代に活躍したシンガーソングライター系のアーティスト達(ディラン、バエズ、CS&N等)はいずれもかつての自分達が好評を得たスタイルでの演奏、ステージングを試みたが、1980年代の同時代性とは合わず、「時代遅れの過去の遺物」として冷ややかな反応を受けた。
フィナーレの「ウィ・アー・ザ・ワールド」で「マイクの奪い合い」に見えた点は各人がコーラスをマイクに乗せようとする気持ちが勝ちすぎたものと思われる。しかしながらリードシンガーのマイクを握って自分の方に向けようとするのはいかんせんやりすぎであった。また、パティ・ラベルの声量が大き過ぎた点に関してはリフレインのユニゾンコーラスのところでパティがオブリガートを乗せる役割を与えられたようであり、そのことに関して彼女自身の落ち度はない。声量が大き過ぎた点に関しては PA担当のミキシングの不手際であると思われる。
ボブ・ディランはフィラデルフィア会場の自身のパートに於いてのMCで「収益の一部をアメリカの困窮する農民にも回してあげたい」と発言(DVDではカット)し、その言葉がきっかけで「ファーム・エイド」が生まれた。しかし後年、ボブ・ゲルドフは自身の伝記で「彼はライヴ・エイドの趣旨を全く理解していなかった。『食を与えられない』問題と『職を与えられない』問題とは次元の違う話であり、そのことをないまぜにしてあのような発言を行ったのは愚かしいことであった。もちろんファーム・エイドが生まれた事自体はいい影響ではあったけれども」と述べている。
渋谷陽一は「ウッドストックは、イベントそのものが大きな事件であった。しかし、ライブエイドは「チャリティ」という話題を借りなければイベントが成り立たず、音楽の影響力が低下した証拠だ」という旨の発言をしている。
