Charity record
 | This article needs additional citations for verification. (February 2012) |
A charity record, charity album, or charity single is a recording with most or all proceeds raised going to a dedicated foundation or charity. In 1956, The Lord's Taveners released a 78 rpm disc which contained six tracks donated by popular artists at the time.[citation needed] The record was released by The Decca Record Company and the entire profits of the record together with the royalties and fees from artists, publishers, etc., were donated to The National Playing Fields Association. This was the first charity record to make the UK charts and reached Number 2.[citation needed] Due to its success, it was followed by a second compilation in 1957.
George Harrison's "Bangla Desh" single in 1971 is commonly regarded as the first successful international charity single;[1] it was recorded to help fund relief efforts following the 1970 Bhola cyclone and the Bangladesh Liberation War. The money raised was donated to UNICEF, as were takings from Harrison's Concert for Bangladesh (again, the first of its kind)[citation needed] held at Madison Square Garden, New York, and its spin-off live album and concert film. This is one way of using artistic talent as art for charity.
Some of the other early charity records came from the January 1979 Music for UNICEF Concert, with the likes of ABBA's "Chiquitita" and the Bee Gees' "Too Much Heaven" released as singles, all the royalties from which went to UNICEF. Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" in November 1984 began the revolution of the charity record, which would be popularised throughout the 1980s.[citation needed]
In the United States, charity records reached their peak with USA for Africa's "We Are the World" in 1985,[citation needed] but then essentially died out afterwards.[citation needed] In the United Kingdom, however, charity singles (especially Comic Relief), have become annual hits.[citation needed]
