WIN the new all-star John Lennon charity album!

We’re giving away copies of Instant Karma: The Campaign To Save Darfur.

It’s a double-CD featuring a host of stars performing Lennon classics.

Green Day, U2, REM, Aerosmith, Duran Duran and Lenny Kravitz top the bill.

They’re joined by Christina Aguilera, Corinne Bailey Rae, and Avril Lavigne.

Then there’s Jack Johnson, Black Eyed Peas, The Cure and many more.

Among the highlights are Green Day’s Working Class Hero, U2′s Instant Karma and Snow Patrol’s Isolation.

Listen, too, for Aerosmith’s Give Peace A Chance, recorded with Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars.

Other memorable covers include Yossou N’Dour’s Jealous Guy and Flaming Lips’ (Just Like) Starting Over.

Proceeds from the sale of the album go towards Amnesty International’s work in Darfur.

The charity says hundreds of thousands of people have been killed, and more than 2.5 million displaced.

Human rights abuses, murder, rape and abductions are commonplace.
