Back in the 80's Bob Geldof, a singer and activist started Band Aid to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia. Whether it was intentional or not, that started a wave of celebrity activism that raised millions for various causes and created a few number-one music hits as well. In this Backtrack, we take a look at some of the great work done and remember what it felt like to see it unfold live.
