Artists including Vivian Girls, Rainbow Arabia, Duran Duran and Carla Bruni have contributed to a new album of David Bowie covers.

Relax, all proceeds from its sale go to War Child.

The double-CD set (there’s also a haul of iTunes-exclusive bonus tracks) inevitably features a fair few howlers and non-starters, but it’s not without its small triumphs and curios. Warpaint and Japan bassist both delivers versions of ‘Ashes To Ashes’, Rainbow Arabia take on ‘Quicksand’ and Viv Albertine offers a fresh interpretation of ‘Letter To Hermione’.

Entitled We Were So Turned On, the album is being released by Manimal Vinyl. Full tracklist below.
