- There is no album, just a 12" inch single of "Stars" with a guitar solo heavy
- instrumental version on the back. It was a benefit for starving africans, I
- believe. There is a video called "The Hear N' Aid Sessions" that was out.
- My roommate got it for a buck z few years back. Lots of singers and
- guitarists guesting. Viv Campbell, Jimmy Bain, Dio, Rob Halford, Yngwie
- Malmsteen, George Lynch, the singer from Rough Cutt, Eddie Ojeda, Neil
- Schon, Geoff Tate, Adrian Smith and Dave Murray, Brad Gillis, Nigel
- Tufnel and David St. Hubbins, etc....
-
- Tons more guests in the Chorus, too. Fun, kinda cheap, and the song is
- sincere but not a classic. The solos kick serious ass though. Lots
- of fucked editing in the video, so you don't always see the guitarist
- you are hearing. Interviews with a ton of people <more like soundbites>,
- including Ted Nugent and Blackie Lawless.
