OTHER NOTES |
This is a very scarce 7" vinyl single released only in Ireland.
The single was recorded to benefit initiatives to get the Irish back to
work in the mid 80s. The song was written by Christy Moore and recorded
with several traditional Irish musicians, as well as Larry Mullen provinding
drums on the title track. The b-side to the single was an acoustic
track recorded by Moore himself without the other members of the "Self
Aid Band".
The single was released in time to help promote the Self Aid Benefit
of May 17, 1986. That live festival brought several Irish acts to the stage
to promote the cause. U2 performed at the benefit, and a recording of U2
performing "Maggie's Farm" would appear on the album, Live
for Ireland, documenting that day. Larry also performed on "Make
it Work" that day in concert and that recording also made the album documenting
that festival. |
