Here's proof that the best music doesn't always make the charts. "Nuggets" a 4 CD Boxed set, and it's one of only a handful of CDs that I've ever paid full price for - and it's worth every penny. It's American psychedelic/garage pop from the 60s (lots of fuzzy guitars, lots of screaming, lots of testosterone...), and by and large they weren't hits.

"Clubmix Ibiza 2001: 42 Of The Biggest Ibiza Club Anthems" - The front cover says it all. I was looking through my shelves the other day and was shocked to find that I didn't own a single club/ibiza compilation album. Perhaps I've borrowed some from friends in the past, but I couldn't find one club album in my entire collection. Wanting to change this, I asked a few friends what they recommended, and they came up with this album - Clubmix Ibiza 2001.
