The Best Summer Holiday...ever

True Romance

It's a sad fact that in the 1990s it seemed that almost every movie released had a soundtrack CD that had little to do with the movie. 'Songs From And Inspired By...' became a phrase that I came to dread, as it usually meant that hardly any of the music heard on the album got anywhere near the film (except perhaps over the closing credits, but often not even there), and the orchestral score which most movies still had wouldn't get anywhere near the CD.

Now That's What I Call Music! 44

Now 44 is one of my favourite Now That's What I Call Music compilations in the history of the series.

Now That's What I Call Music! 44

Now 44 was available around the end of 1999 and start of 2000. Like all of the ‘Now that’s what I call music’ it consists of most of the top hits of recent months and was (and possibly still is) available on double CD or Cassette. Like most of the Now series one disc/cassette appears to be better than the other. Disc 1 has all ...
