Ronnie James Dio逝世已经一周年,趁着今天有空写一下他曾发起的一个活动Hear 'n Aid 1983～1985年非洲发生二十世纪最严重的饥荒，在1984年耶诞前夕，英国由 Ultravox 乐团的Midge Ure及Boomtown Rats乐团的Bob Geldof 合作写了一首"Do They Know It's Christmas"，并由当时英国最当红的乐手组成了Band Aid 灌录单曲，收益作为对衣索 匹亚贫民的食物与药物供应。之後美国乐坛也不落人後，由Michael Jackson和 Lionel Richie合写"We Are the World"，并在1985年号召美国众多当红歌星在洛杉矶的录音室 ，灌录We are the world这首单曲，单曲发行後短短数周便销售百万张，受到这股风气 影响，金属乐团Dio的主唱Ronnie James Dio受到上面两个义唱活动的启发，便决定集 合重金属乐界办一个类似的义唱活动，於是1985年5月20、21日，邀集40位重金属乐界 的巨星聚集在Hollywood的A&M Records Studio，录制了一首"Stars" (也可称 We're Stars)的单曲，而之後更集结多个乐团Live歌曲发行Star专辑。 Star 影片 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZktrrqT1A0 看到25年前的影片，岁月流逝确实对人产生很明显的变化，很多当年的劲帅模样乐手 ，如今几乎都成了大叔，就如Rob Halford当年顶上还有头发，Yngwie还没变肥，而 Ronnie James Dio已经蒙主宠召。看到多位重量级乐手的合作，你是否勾引起往事的 回忆呢。 参与歌手 Vocals Eric Bloom (Blue Oyster Cult) Ronnie James Dio (Dio) Don Dokken (Dokken) Kevin DuBrow (Quiet Riot) Rob Halford (Judas Priest) Dave Meniketti (Y&T) Paul Shortino (Rough Cutt) Geoff Tate (Queensryche) Backing Vocals Tommy Aldridge (Ozzy Osbourne) Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge/King Kobra) Vinny Appice (Dio) Jimmy Bain (Dio) Claude Schnell (Dio) Vivian Campbell (Dio) Mick Brown (Dokken) George Lynch (Dokken) Jeff Pilson (Dokken) Frankie Banali (Quiet Riot) Carlos Cavazo (Quiet Riot) Rudy Sarzo (Quiet Riot) Dave Alford (Rough Cutt) Amir Derakh (Rough Cutt) Chris Hager (Rough Cutt) Matt Thorr (Rough Cutt) Buck Dharma (Blue Oyster Cult) Brad Gillis (Night Ranger) Craig Goldy (Giuffria) Chris Holmes (W.A.S.P.)
