Best Kind Of Style Is The Style You Don't Notice, The - Various Artists

Advantages: Everything!
Disadvantages: i can't think of one

...I absolutey adore this album, the best money i have ever spent. I bought this album only a few months ago after being introduces to jazz and funk, and i'm still not bored of it. I love it, no matter how bad your days been it really gets you up and dancing. It contains some amazing artists like the Meters, Huey Piano Smith, Explosions, and Eddie Bo. I bought is for only £8 including postage, its brilliant. It doesn't matter what kind of music your normally into, i think this is something everyone can enjoy at all ages. Its great to get dancing to but really good for relxaing too, i always have it on in the background to study. If you haven't already got one, its the perfect CD to start your Funk collection. It also comes with a great booklet that tells you all about the style of music and the different artist on the CD to give you more... Read review

Advantages: Great mix of songs and artists.
Disadvantages: Not always the best of the bands hits.

...really huge stars and massive hits. Kicking off with "A kind of magic" by Queen it is a great start to what is the better of the 2 CDs. Favourites of mine on this disc include UB40 "Red, red wine" and Duran Duran "Save a prayer" the songs featured are not necessarily the artists best though and songs such as "Thorn in my side" by the Eurythmics or "I found someone" by Cher could have easily been replaced by better known hits. Belinda Carlisle with "Heaven is a place on earth" has always really annoyed me so I tend to skip this track along with Bonnie Tyler's "Total eclipse of the heart" other than those though I find the rest of the tracks enjoyable. 1. A Kind Of Magic - Queen 2. Every Breath You Take - The Police 3. Only You - Yazoo 4. The Tide Is High - Blondie 5. My Girl - Madness 6. Red Red Wine - UB40 7. Sledgehammer - Peter... Read review

Advantages: Very soulful and musical, some unknown tracks
Disadvantages: Different from volume 1

...Plastyc Surgery volume 1 was a groundbreaking release. It was something like an essence of that unmatched Hospital Records style, the style that has shaken the scene like no other has done before. This release here is the same kind of essence. Yet the style of Hospital now is different. The recipe of soulfulness Hospital originally brough was something like bringing in various kinds of effects that made beat soft and fluent, creating an original atmosphere for each track. The sound of Hospital of today is different. It is even less bassy and much more melodic and musical. If you've heard the Hospital of today and some of their pre-2004 tunes you will get what I mean right away. The difference of sounds is great, and the difference of two volumes of Plastic Surgery is an excellent example of that. The first CD is pretty short... Read review
