War Child have re-released several classic albums to help raise money for children whose lives are affected by ongoing conflicts in areas like Ukraine and Afghanistan.

They’re re-releasing, ‘1 Love’, ‘Hope’, ‘Help! A Day In The Life’ and ‘War Child Presents Heroes’ via War Childs Records.

The albums are available on limited black, yellow and red vinyl for the first time from today (April 8) and can be ordered here.

All proceeds from the sale will go towards supporting children whose lives have been affected by war in areas such as Ukraine and Afghanistan.

The classic albums, released between 2002 and 2009 feature artists including Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Coldplay, Radiohead, Gorillaz, Manic Street Preachers, Beck, Oasis, Lily Allen, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and many more.

In a statement, War Child said: “By purchasing these classic albums fans are supporting War Child to reach children in Ukraine and conflict zones around the world and give them the vital protection, education and psychosocial support they require.”

‘1 Love’ was first released in 2002 in collaboration with NME to mark 50 years of the magazine. Artists picked their favourite tracks to cover for the record, and it included Muse covering ‘House Of The Rising Sun’ by The Animals and The Prodigy covering The Specials’ ‘Ghost Town’.

In 2003, ‘Hope’ was released in collaboration with The Daily Mirror as a response to the Iraq war. In just three weeks, artists covered an array of tracks including George Michael covering Don McLean’s ‘The Grave’ and New Order covering Jimmy Cliff’s ‘Vietnam’.

In a statement about the re-releases, Rich Clarke, Head of War Child Records said: “We are delighted to make this fantastic collection of music available to a new generation of fans and get these incredible songs, donated through the generosity of the artist community, raising vital funds for War Child’s life saving work again.

“There are some amazing tracks that haven’t been heard for decades like George Michael’s cover of Don McLean’s ‘The Grave’ or Lily Allen covering ‘Straight to Hell’ with Mick Jones on guitar and backing vocals. We’re incredibly proud to put these important albums out on vinyl for the first time with limited black, yellow and red releases.

“The need for War Child’s work has never been greater – 10.7 million children in Ukraine are living in a terrifying crisis, and millions more across the world are still in need of critical support because of conflict.
