On 6th March 1987, a British ferry called "The
Herald Of Free Enterprise" carrying 459 passengers capsized off the coast of
Zeebrugge (Belgium) killing 190 people. It was the largest British sea
disaster since the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. A relief fund was set up
to help survivors and the victim's families by British trash rag The Sun.
Overcoming many objections to the nature of The Sun's involvement, a charity
single was organized to raise funds and featured The Beatles' Let it be.
Paul McCartney gave permission for his voice to be used as a guide track.
Mark Knopfler plays a small guitar solo on this track. |
