After Hours - Muddy Waters

Advantages: 17 blistering tracks
Disadvantages: none

...a fantastic album featuring performances by nirvana from all over the world and it sounds as fresh as on any of the albums. You can really hear the drummer giving it some as the zip through the songs all at 100 miles per hour. 17 tracks always good value for a Compact Disc all the famous tracks are on this one unlike unplugged, and dont think its gonna sound like unplugged neither this is Nirvana banging out the melodies with all the amps turned up to the max. A must for all nirvana files.... Read review

Advantages: One of her best albums
Disadvantages: Too 'weird' for some

...With The Dreaming, Kate Bush took a mammoth leap, producing something of dark beauty and meticulous madness. Her previous set Never Forever, was an admirable leap back into the mainstream after the low-key affair of Lionheart. Here though, she really muddies the waters.

If you are looking for some classic Van the man, a cd packed full of easy listening tunes that will suit almost... Read review
