If memory serves me correct, this was from one of the very first AIDS benefit albums, but then again I could be wrong. Anyway, it is an awesome track!

Re: Where's this track from?
Meat Loaf did sing "Stand By Me" with Boy
George at the Aids Benefit show , but the version on "The Collection" was recorded in 1974 while Meat Loaf was recording his track from "Rocky Horror". Richard Hartley (who was part of the making of the rocky soundtrack) wanted Meat to record 2 extra pre rocky tracks which would be released as a single ; "Stand By Me" and "Clap Your Hands". For some strange reason, they never got released until 1984 , on various 45' singles from "Bad Attitude".and thats we're "Stand By Me" came from. hope this helps see ya later! Baleter |
