Best Of Cafe Ibiza - Various Artists

Advantages: Songs have all charted at some point
Disadvantages: Songs have all charted at some point

...This is my first review on music, so if anyone has any comments on how I might improve the review they would be more than welcome. Manumission The Ibiza Classics Collection. Presentation: It's a collection of 3 CD's (48 Tracks) that come in individual jewel cases within a cardboard sleeve. Personally I always end up throwing the sleeve away and the jewel cases are particularly thin and don't fit too well in stands etc. The artwork is pretty basic just a large M with what appears to be a collage of Manumission posters within it, on a white background. Each CD and the sleeve has the same artwork. The individual cases only list the songs there is a separate sleeve that lists the date of release, producers etc.. This is slightly annoying if you do not wish to keep the cardboard sleeve as it will not fit into the CD cases. CD1 1... Read review

Advantages: Oh my, too many to list.
Disadvantages: Absolutly none.

...listing further on in the review for those who would like to know. This Volume contains 15 tracks, all compiled with love by Jose padilla, the lengdenary DJ from the Cafe del mar in Ibiza.

It has been five years since Jose stopped working on these cd's, he has gone on to release a few cd's of his own work, I have two of them and they are fantastic, although they dont contain such...

Advantages: Some good remixes and the price
Disadvantages: Not many, some fillers but i suppose you get that with every album

...This cd is an absolue bargain. I would highly recommend purchasing this as Bad Boy and Puff Daddy are well known for producing good remixes and the series of albums was a very good idea, another money spinning venture but one for the fans who had remixes on b sides of cd singles and recorded off the radio! Special Delivery - G Dep, Ghostface Killah, Keith Murray & Craig Mack. Quite a repetitive tune but a cult favourite. More likely to hear it in the clubs I Need A Girl Part 2 - Ginuwine, Mario Winans, P Diddy & Loon. Video and single released off the back of the successful part 1. Some say they prefer this version, i actual do and its one of the best tracks on the album Bad Boy For Life - P Diddy, Busta Rhymes & MOP. A shouty version of the original. Not bad but too much going on lyrically for me, my ears couldnt take it I Need... Read review
