Cafe Del Mar 25th Anniversary (1980-2005) - Various Artists

A 25th Anniversary Celebration with "more than meets the eye" !!!

Advantages: An impressively accurate and very well made re-issue of a classic retro toy.
Disadvantages: The "dilemma" ... should I open and play or keep sealed and display ???

of toy technology. Robots that "transformed" into vehicles was probably the coolest toy concept to have hit the shelves and for those of you lucky enough to have owned some of the first generation Transformers toys you would have been the envy of your friends !!! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY FROM THE AUTOBOTS !!! 1984 was a long time ago but to mark that special anniversary Hasbro have released a commemorative 25th Anniversary Edition of the greatest Transformer of all time ... Optimus Prime !!! And, whilst the toys based on the CGI created Optimus Prime from this summer's blockbuster may look impressive nothing can quite beat the retro feel of the original Transformers toys ... and this Optimus Prime toy has been accurately produced so that it has both the look and feel of the 1984 original. MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE ...

Review of Hasbro Transformers Optimus Prime 25th Anniversary Edition

Cafe del mar....Volume 6

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

Jose padilla has done it again, brought such diverse tracks together in harmony to make us lesser mortals feel good about everything. This sadly was to be Jose's last compilation in the cafe del mar series, as i have said before, this is where i stopped buying these cd's. For me no one else could put them together in the same fashion. I started reviewing this series with the first offering and have now jumped to the last, I hope to find the time to review the rest soon, but i have fishy presure at work at the moment (if you read my last review you'll understand!!) So here we are, number six and the last stage of the journey Jose has taken us on. Through the six years these cd's have been produced my musical horizons have been ever deepend, and my mind and soul soothed by the heavenly sounds contained within. I will put the track ...

Review of Cafe Del Mar Ibiza Vol.6 (Compiled By Jose Padilla) - Various Artists

Cafe Del Mar 1

Advantages: Truly Beautiful
Disadvantages: None.

I was introduced to the cafe del mar series by a friend back in 1995, what a long time ago! I have never been to the famed cafe in Ibiza, but have purchased all the volumes in this series upto Vol 6. I stopped here because the man that puts them togther stopped, there are others and i'm sure they are good, but they won't be as good as this! Jose Padilla is the master mind behind volumes 1-6, he has such a good understanding of music and the way that it can influence moods and feelings and his selections on the cds are outstanding. I will review each of the 6 as I get the time, but here we will deal with the first... There are 12 tracks on the cd, I think you can still by it in the shops but remeber that it is now 10 years old!! This volume mixes tracks by Leftfield, Underworld, A man called adam and others, The penguin cafe ...
