		The Help Album is a 1995 charity album, bringing together many contemporary British and Irish artists, with all proceeds going to the War Child charity's aid efforts in war-torn Bosnia and Herzegovina.
		As the makers of the album were putting the final touches to the album, a courier arrived with a tape of O'Connor's contribution.

	The Daily Vault Album Reviews : War Child
		War Child picks up where Aqulung left off, with Anderson returning to a familiar lyrical tack reminiscent of songs from Aqualung, with highly metaphorical commentaries on war, government, religion, and the plight of everyman.
		Much of this album was intended for a film score for a film that was never made, but the songs retain a bit of the instrumentation one would expect from songs written for film.
		War is a common theme throughout the album.

	JETHRO TULL War Child reviews and MP3
		Of course, it's not a certainty that "War Child" is a concept album; while the songs have a shared musical sensibility and the themes are perceived to come from the same character, it's something of an expansive and occasionally rambling criticism of life in general (a charge levelled against TULL's earlier albums as well).
		"War Child"'s achievement is in its music: some of the richest in recent memory, the arrangements are consistently stunning in their execution, courting excess but impossibly balanced by admirable dexterity.
		"War child" is the album that was released between 1972's "Thick as a brick" and 1975's "Mistrel in the Gallery".

	War Child - The Official Jethro Tull Website
		Despite the seemingly disconnected themes, "War Child" was planned as a movie soundtrack.
		The "War Child" tour featured perhaps Tull's most outlandish costuming: Anderson as minstrel, Hammond with his fl-and-white striped suit and coordinating instruments, Evan in his baggy ice cream salesman white suit, Barlow in a lightweight boxer outfit, and Barre's floral, almost Elton John-like, suit.
		"War Child" was the first album produced solely by Anderson, except for sound by Robin Black.

		War Child is a charity that set out non-denominationally to help children, child victims of the war.
		They tried to make it look as if there was a big civil war going on in the country, to which they were going to respond - exactly the same technique the Serbians have used.

	The Daily Vault Album Reviews : War Child
		Having survived the critical drubbing their last album A Passion Play took and the rumor that Ian Anderson was so upset with the response to the disc that he disbanded Tull (only to reform the next day), Anderson faced a tough choice.
		In truth, War Child was supposed to be a soundtrack to a movie -- in essence, becoming the third concept piece in a row for Jethro Tull -- but the bottom eventually fell out of that plan.
		It is the first half of War Child, though, that is the most difficult to get through, and seems to be the most bogged down in any plot.

	Apple scraps with War Child over charity album price \| The Register
		While the War Child album is now on sale everywhere for the correct £9.99, tracks from the album are still on sale for just 79p on ITMS - 20p a song less than the charity is selling them for on its own site.
		Apple wouldn't tell us how many people bought the album at the discount price, if it'll be giving the difference to the charity, or if it'll be handing over that 20p discrepancy on sales of individual tracks, as it agreed to do with the Band Aid single.
		War Child Music may not have the variety, back catalogue or ambition of the others, but at least it can get its own pricing right.

	Ground and Sky review - Jethro Tull - Warchild
		The album is dotted with non-musical sound effects: sirens, voices, shots, glasses clinking, etc. Though a number of songs are remnants of the afterlife story, the tone is never dark or somber.
		The title track and "Ladies" — each overdone, "Ladies" more so — both inexplicably break into a stilted rock and roll boogie toward their respective conclusions and provide ample evidence that, whatever vast array of influences this band has been able to credibly assimilate over the years, 1950s rock and roll wasn't one of them.
		The dreadful "Bungle in the Jungle," the album's hit single, is an exhibition of the band's worst tendencies on Warchild: awkward animal allegories, a weak melody and needlessly frilly arrangements.
