All You Need Is (Wizard) Love


Okay, so I wanted to post about this awesome new compilation album that was created to help fund Wrockstock Staffer Rose's trip to Zambia. She’s volunteering there for 4-6 months, teaching kids how to read and working with AIDS relief. The money raised from the album (and let’s face it, it’s not expensive - a minimum donation of $10) will go towards things like flights, vaccinations, and living expenses whilst there.

The album contains 14 songs originally by The Beatles, but transfigured into wizard rock by some of the best bands on the scene, mastered by Christian of Oliver Boyd and the Remembralls.

The track listing is as follows:
Grindylows's Garden - Draco and the Malfoys
All Together Now - The Nifflers w/ Alex Carpenter
Millicent - Justin Finch-Fletchley
I've Just Seen A Witch - Madame Pince and the Librarians
Stubby Raccoon - DJ Luna Lovegood
The Weasley Family - The Holyhead Harpies w/ Catchlove and Oliver Boyd & the Remembralls
Black Family Tree - Hawthorn and Holly
I'll Follow Their Son - The Remus Lupins
Sybill Trelawney - Catchlove
A Hog's Head Night - The Blood Traitors
All My Magic - Creevey Crisis
Why Don't We Do It In The Burrow? - Tonks and the Aurors
House Elves - Dreary Inferi
Mean Mr. Filch/ Lavender Brown/ She Died In An Upstairs Bathroom - Gred and Forge

Now I love the Beatles and I was really impressed at the great reworking of these classic songs in wizard rock style. An excellent compilation in my opinion and, as is often the case with Wizard Rock, for a very worthy cause.

If you want to buy a copy of the album please click on this link and it will take you to the order page. The album is in download format to cut down on production costs.
