Now That's What I Call Music! 61

The second of three Now That's What I Call Music albums to be released in 2005, Now 61 contains much of the music made popular over the late Spring and early Summer of this year. It ioncorporates a lot of clinically good music, and while not being so much the smash hit poppy album, it certainly has some elements of technical musical brilliance. As an album, it is quirky in its construction, with the charts in that year seeing the dawn of a few new stars shining through as well as a couple of previous stars returning for glory, so it's a case of in with new AND in with the old. The first disc starts off with a song that was initially massively ...  Read the complete review

Now Thats What I Call Music 61 is the latest addition to the Now album. This is aimed at the summer by the looks of the album cover here. This latest album has more recognisable songs than the previous album and I am surprised that this one does not have any Asian singers or bands in, which makes it a good change.

The biggest and best compilation around returns for another mammoth dose of pop hits, indie beats, urban anthems and dance floor filling tunes from the charts.

Because of its varied tunes, even my children (aged between 2 and 8) enjoy listening to it. Makes me feel a ...  Read the complete review

The Now albums are a benchmark by which compilation albums should be judged. They have been around since the early eighties and are still going strong to this day. They actually sell more copies these days than they did back in the eighties Tracks: There are 43 tracks on this album, so you are getting a lot of music for about fifteen quid straight off. Artists include James Blunt, Oasis, Weezer, Nelly and Heather Small Best tracks: Weezer's 'Beverley Hills' is a tongue in cheek slow rock burner and worth hearing, also check out Kasier Chief's 'Everyday I Love You Less And Less' which is a brilliant punk fuelled synth fest. Styles: You ...  Read the complete review
