Geoff Tate (Queensryche) recording vocals for Hear n’ Aid - ’Stars’

Hear ’n Aid was a charity record recorded by a large ensemble of 40 heavy metal musicians and released in 1986. The project was organized by Ronnie James Dio, Jimmy Bain, and Vivian Campbell, all from the band Dio. Proceeds from the album were used to raise money for famine relief in Africa.[1] The 40 musicians which had been gathered together by Dio recorded the single “Stars“ together; the rest of the album was filled out with eight other tracks, several of which were contributed by artists who were on tour and unable to attend and participate in the mass recording session. A music video was released as well, produced during the recording sessions. Recording & Behind the scenes: Music Video:
