Ballroom Dancing (The Essential Collection) - Various Artists

Advantages: chilled out happy tunes
Disadvantages: variety of artists not just R&B

...I loved this CD collection, it has a fantastic range of artists on it, which allows for the CD to appeal to all diffent types of individuals, it says that it is am essential R&B collection yet i woul say that some of the variety of songs are also Hip Hop and possibly slightly dance tracks. Fantastic for singing along to when your in the car, exspecially in this nice weather. Containes a mix of various tracks from present day, back to the some oldies such as Bobbi Brown, which is always good to hear from time to time. Has some classic's from Destinys child to Whitney Houston and Alicia Keys, this CD collection gives off a positive happy vibe, which is what we all need when the summer is on its way.... Read review

Advantages: Loads of Phil Collins songs
Disadvantages: Loads of Phil Collins songs messed up

...An album of remixed Phil Collins tracks performed by r&b and hip hop artists. Risky, seeing as the man himself as churned out classic after classic and as you can imagine it wasnt well received by, well anyone. I did however purchase because i like Phil Collins and i like hip hop & r&b so i took a chance. I should have spent my money on buying that indoor ten pin bowling set instead. Saying that there is a couple of decent tunes on here but as a whole, not the greatest ive spent my money on Tracks Another Day In Paradise - Ray J & Brandy. The single to come off this album was received quite well, not a bad video and the brother sister duet that everyone wanted to hear. An up to date version but not better than the original. You may find me saying that more often than not Sussudio - Ol Dirty Bastard. Shocking. No resemblence... Read review

Advantages: Nice collection
Disadvantages: Not a love collection, just good R & B

...The essential R & B collection is a good complilation but I wouldnt necessarily call it a love collection.Its the kind of cd to listen to when ironing or driving.Some songs obviously suit the title,love collection and this includes NSYNC,Wayne Wonder,Aaliyah,Alicia Keys,Toni Braxton among others.But Eamon with F**k It? Other songs like R Kelly's hands of time are for reminiscing the good old times and what could have been not whats happening at the moment.Maybe if the songs could have been numbered differently it could have made a difference with the love songs in one cd and the others in the next.Its a good mix of the old and the new with Justin Timberlake,Warren G,2 pac and Dr Dre but I wouldnt consider it when planning a cosy night in.Nice collection though....
