| LINER NOTES |
| 46664 (Long Walk to Freedom): Written by Strummer,
Hewson, Stewart. Performed by Bono, The Edge, David A. Stewart, Abdel
Wright, and Youssou N'Dour. |
| OTHER NOTES |
| In late 2002 Bono worked with Joe Strummer of the Clash and
David A. Stewart on a song titled after Nelson Mandela's Prision Number
'46664'. This song was to be used to bring attention to the devestation
that AIDS and HIV was creating in Africa. Joe Strummer, however,
passed away before the completion of the song and it was left up to Bono
and David Stewart to finish the song.
Originally planned for early 2003, a concert was planned in South Africa
to launch the 46664 campaign. The concert was pushed back and rescheduled
for November 29th, 2003 to coincide with World AIDS day. The concert
was streamed live on the internet, and was later televised around the world.
It is '46664 (Long Walk to Freedom)' which is the featured track with
U2 involvment on this disc, and Bono and the Edge are joined by others
in the performance of this track.
The entire concert was released on CD, spread over three discs.
These discs were sold separately to hopefully bring in buyers who would
only be interested in one disc and wouldn't pay for a three disc set.
Contributions by Bono and the Edge are spread out over all three released
discs. The other two discs capturing this live event are Part
I: African Prayer and Part III: Amandla.
There was also a 2 disc DVD released of the entire concert. |
