The Story of Live Aid

We Are History - A podcast by Angela Barnes and John O'Farrell

Categories:

How one scruffy Irish popstar saw a terrible famine being reported on his television and decided to do a bit more than just send a cheque to Oxfam. (John spent so long researching this podcast on Live Aid that he thought he might as well do a West End Musical about it at the same time).  Reading List: The Eighties, One Day, One Decade by Dylan Jones;  Is That It by Bob Geldof Buy books through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll help fund We Are History by earning us a small commission for every sale. Bookshop.org’s fees help support independent bookshops too.
