The Who
Live Aid 1985 Concert Highlights featuring Queen, U2, The Who, and more
In the electrifying haze of Live Aid 1985, The Who took to the iconic Wembley Stadium stage, reigniting their legacy in rock history. Just a year earlier, they released "It's Hard," a somewhat mixed-reception album that showcased their evolving sound during the '80s. The record blended their classic rock roots with more contemporary production, reflecting the band's determination to stay relevant in a rapidly changing music landscape. Interestingly, this live performance marked one of The Who's major reunions after being relatively quiet for a few years, and it showcased their undying energy and charisma as they performed classics like "My Generation." With the band still riding the wave of their earlier successes and pulling off such an impactful live show, it wasn’t just a comeback; it was a celebration of rock’s collective spirit, especially when sharing the stage with legends like Queen and U2. It's a moment that amplified their voice in the global conversation about music and charity.
