    Notes

    In The Name Of Love: Africa Celebrates U2 features brand-new covers of classic U2 songs by Grammy Award-winning and up-and-coming African artists including Angelique Kidjo, Les Nubians, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars, Vieux Farka Touré, Vusi Mahlasela and the Soweto Gospel Choir.

    The album was inspired by Bono’s direct philanthropic impact via the launch of the ONE campaign and(RED), and his poignant outspoken public commentary on the immediate financial needs facing Africa.

    Proceeds from the sale of the album will benefit the Global Fund To Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
