What people say:
The album is a truly eclectic mix of Rock, Blues and Soul and features over 60 musicians from bands such as Thin Lizzy, The Climax Blues Band, The Rolling Stones, Elton John, UFO, Motor Head, Asia, Uriah Heep, Alice Cooper and solo artists such as Ruby Turner, Daniel Boone, Arthur Brown and Jaki Graham.

The idea here is that musicians give their services for free, in aid of various charities. A laudable objective. Malcolm Dome, Classic Rock

The LovePower and Peace single has already received some amazing reviews and support from press and radio…

Superb musicianship, magnificent vocals from Ruby Turner and Jaki Graham and an excellent cause. Love Power & Peace deserves to be a monster smash. Garry Bushell

Unlike some charity 45s, LovePower and Peace actually boasts a worthy song for a worthy cause. A sweet melody, heartfelt vocal and a rousing refrain that leaves no excuses not to dig deep and help … Tim Jones, Record Collector

… you not only have musicians with a ridiculously high pedigree, but also a startlingly diverse group of people who have combined to wonderful effect… Steven Reid, Fireworks Magazine

The Love Power band's performance will keep you coming back for a replay day after day ... Great iconic tune with all the right sentiments..Mark Wheeler, TNT-audio.
