It’s been 40 years since Live Aid, where Phil Collins performed as part of an all-star cast of musicians, brought together by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, to raise money for the 1983-1985 famine in Ethiopia. Notably, Phil would be the only artist to play at the London concert, before travelling via Concorde to play at the Philadelphia concert on the same day.

In addition to performing piano versions of “Against All Odds” and “In The Air Tonight”, Phil would appear onstage alongside @ericclapton, @theofficialsting and @ledzeppelin.

🎥 Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now), performed at Live Aid Wembley - July 13th, 1985.
