Advantages: Great triple CD Disadvantages: None
...Waggle is not really out of place on this album, being Hancock at his modern jazz best.
Other tracks include Mory Kante's Yeke Yeke, Lekah Babalola's Oya, Denns Ferrer's Funu, Maw with Time is Now, Area F's Akumbe (the original mix) Soothsayer's Follow Your Path (remix) Massak's rather intriguingly named B.L.A. Part 1 (Part 1), D J Food's remixed Dub Lion, Mamu Dibango's Soul Makossa, !Knuf's An Der Beat, Fela Kuit's Ako, Quantic's Use What You Got, Hugh Masekela's Don't Go Lose It Baby (12 inch version), Fela Kuti's Obe and Ghetto Blaster's Na Waya.
Oddly enough whilst the track listings for CD 1 showup, there are no track listings for CD 2.
There's also a third, bonus CD, called Afro Chill with 17 tracks to chill out to.
The CD costs £15.99 and is available via Amazon and is on Family Records....

Twice as Nice Review ofTwice As Nice Vol.1 (Mixed by DJ Spoony/Steve Sutherland) - DJ Spoonyby
AdonisC
Advantages: Disadvantages:
...The Twice as Nice boys have done it again, residents for the sunday night event at the End have produced the latest compilation of live, mixed Uk garage and R'n'B. Cd one capture the essence of all that is good with the uk scene at present, some of the R'n B cuts are cool (such as Shola Ama's Imagine) as are mixes by the Artful Dodger of the Lynden David Hall tune. Coupled with this, Spoony has successfully put some decent heavy baseline stuff, such as track 2 -stand and deliver, a particular favourite of mine, and 'Celebrate Life'.
Cd 2 contains fairly mainstream R'n B cuts, skillfully put together for the listener by Sutherland. A good purchase....

Advantages: Excellent mix of music, very easy listening and full performance. Disadvantages: Repitition
...Deuteronomy, the leader of the Jellicle Cats. It is a haunting song which provokes emotion and always makes me sing along.
12. Jellicle Ball
The recurring melody prompts the starts the track that us tells us about Jellicle Cats and the ball. It has a staccato rhythm and it makes me tap feet (again!)
13. Grizabella The Glamour Cat
This song is very similar to track 8, again telling us of the misfortune of Grizabella and how she is no longer as she used to be.
14. Memory
This is probably the best known number for 'Cats' but at this point on the album, it's a shorter version than the associated one, that comes later. It's probably also Elaine Paige's best known number too.
Disk Two
15. The Moments of Happiness
This has a string melody introduction which uses the same music and operatic voice of Old Deuteronomy, followed by Jemima singing a short...
