Give a Helpin' Hand

All Europe fans! I found a high quality sound of Give A Helpin' Hand. Written by Joey Tempest, produced by Kee Marcello! John Leven on bass. John Norum on guitar. Ian Haugland on drum. Mic Micaeli on keyboard.

Correct song title is "Give a Helpin' Hand". Name of the project is "Swedish Metal Aid". Played and sung by Swedish all star hard rockers including Europe members and Joey Tempest, Tone Norum (John Norum's younger sister) as solo singers.

This was for raising money to save the famine in Ethiopia, Africa. Same kind of charity song of England, "Do They Know It's Christmas?" released in November 1984 by the project name Band Aid and "We Are The Word" in January 1985 by all American pop/rock star project "USA For Africa" were well known. "Give A Helpin' Hand" single was released in October 1985. opia
