War Child Heroes : 8 out of 10 on AOL



AOL give the War Child "Heroes" album an 8 out 10 review!

"The latest War Child album has something of a dream premise. A selection of the greatest names in music pick out a song of theirs, and then nominate a current musical big hitter to cover it. The resulting album, which will raise money for the children who live with the brutal effects of war, sees Beck covering Bob Dylan's Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat, Elbow take on U2's Running To Stand Still, The Hold Steady doffing their cap to The Boss' Atlantic City and Duffy rework Paul McCartney's Live And Let Die. Charity album or not, it's a worthwhile project, but considering where the profits are going, it's near essential"
