Now available on iTunes and Amazon, this is the legendary Rock Aid Armenia version of 'Smoke on the Water'.

In 1989, artists from Pink Floyd, Queen, Rush, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Yes, Iron Maiden and others joined forces to raise funds for people affected by the Armenian earthquake. Kerrang called it "the greatest array of hard rock talent every assembled".

Organised by Jon Dee, the remake featured David Gilmour, Brian May, Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, Alex Lifeson and Chris Squire on guitars. On vocals it had Ian Gillan, Bruce Dickinson, Paul Rogers and Bryan Adams. Keith Emerson and Geoff Downes played the keyboards and Roger Taylor played the drums.

This is the official promo video for the 2010 Wermut & Dee remix of the track. It's been released worldwide to raise funds to rebuild a children's music school in Gyumri in the Armenian earthquake zone. Please tell your friends on Facebook and Twitter about this video.

A 40 minute 'Making Of' DVD/CD is available for purchase via EDEL at the following online stores
Amazon UK tinyurl.com/3djd5p8
Amazon USA tinyurl.com/4x35cuw

For more information, visit www.RockAidArmenia.com

Please enjoy this video but do pay to buy the track and video - this will help us to raise enough funds to rebuild the Gyumri music school in the Armenian earthquake zone. 20 years after the earthquake, this children's music school has still not been rebuilt. I hope you enjoy it!
