Following the success of Bob Geldof's Band Aid single in December 1984, Harvey was approached by Bob to produce the first live show of its kind. From initial contact to the day of the concert was 10 1/2 weeks. Harvey remembers clearly the press call at Wembley Stadium where he and Bob Geldof announced the event and listed the acts who would be playing. Although at this time the acts had been told the event was to take place, only the Boomtown Rats (Geldof's band) had confirmed that they would play. However this announcement set the tone for artists to confirm their attendance, David Bowie, Madonna, Elton John and U2 being some of the first.Before the time of mobiles phones and the internet, it was a huge feat to keep such a tight schedule. The morning of the concert Harvey sent his runner to find 40 clocks to place backstage. Harvey personally put them in every dressing room, restaurant, green room area and even the toilets affixed with the instruction - 'I don't mind what time you go on, but it does matter what time you come off'. If the artists could stick to their stage exit there was a hope that the live transfer over from Wembley Stadium in London to John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia would sync without a glitch. Live Aid has become a historic event, with the initial anticipation it would raise £1million. To this day the Band-Aid Trust receives £2-3million each year, and directly following Live Aid a staggering £140million.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Ca. 618 to 906 AD. Tang Dynasty. Pair of terracotta female musician figures. One is playing a drum, the other one is playing the flute. Both are depicted in kneeling position, wearing long light coloured covering robes covering their legs and a red shawl around the shoulders. The hair is neatly combed into a coiffure consisting of a high topknot. The faces are covered with white pigment, on which thin, slightly arched eyebrows, narrow eyes and pointed nose have been outlined in black pigment, the small mouth has been painted in red pigment. The highest-rated musicians at the Tang court performed seated, while the lower ranks played standing and were also treated less well in other respects. The Tang dynasty was largely a period of progress and stability in the first half of the dynasty's rule, until the An Lushan Rebellion and the decline of central authority in the later half of the dynasty. Grave goods were an important status symbol in ancient China, so the affluent and important would be accompanied in their travels through the afterlife with numerous depictions of people, items and animals. Such terracotta figures were made for the service and entertainment of the owner, ensuring that their journey in the underworld was a happy one. Terracotta tomb attendants seemed to have first appeared during the Western Han Dynasty. However, it is during Tang China that the cultural tradition of displaying wealth in elite tombs reached its peak, with an increased production of terracotta statuettes. The Tang Dynasty was a thrilling time in Chinese history, when trade flourished along the Silk Routes and unified China was the richest country on earth. Chang'an (now Xi'an) was the Tang capital, and it was one of the most cosmopolitan cities on earth, filled with foreigners who had travelled to China to trade; the influence of foreigners and talented native Chinese, combined with the economic prosperity brought on by trade and the new religion from India, Buddhism, created a powerful cultural milieu where poetry and other forms of art flourished. Provenance: From the private collection of D. Ruskin, Oxfordshire; formerly in a British collection formed in the 1990s on the UK / International art markets. Size: L:Set of 2: 225mm / W:115mm ; 1.8kg
