OVERVIEW


Red Hot + Blue is the first in the series of compilation albums from the Red Hot Organization. The album will be available digitally for the first time since its original release in 1990. It features contemporary pop performers reinterpreting the music of Cole Porter, one of the great American songwriters of the early 20th century. It was one of the first successful tribute albums and a landmark multimedia project, with contributions from filmmakers, artists and designers in addition to musicians.
The money raised went to several groundbreaking AIDS organizations, notably ACT UP and Treatment Action Group (TAG), which were responsible for forcing the government and pharmaceutical companies to release the drugs that now allow people to live with HIV.

Red Hot is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that produces music and media dedicated to social change, beginning in 1990 at the height of the AIDS pandemic. Red Hot's mission is to raise awareness about diversity and equal access to health care. The company has produced 25 projects to date and given away over 15 million dollars to organizations around the world.
