It was actually recorded the year before, 1984. Shaky and his management knew it wouldn't get to Number 1 ahead of Band Aid so they kept it in the can for a whole year. Is it just me or is that kinda cynical?

It would also have been pretty distasteful and probably quite un-comfortable for Shakey to have to compete with Band Aid with the whole 'Don't buy that record that (supposedly) will do so much to alleviate poverty and hunger in Africa. Buy mine, which will buy a new Benz for my paymasters.' |
