Funky Jams Vol.6 - Various Artists

Advantages: Excellent mix of old and new songs
Disadvantages: None that i can see, if you buy this you know what to expect

...! and straight after I Luv U Baby (The Original) we move further upbeat and house style to Make the World Go Round from Sandy B (excellent vocals on this one) and finish with Fatboy Slims Praise You. There are lots of other tracks inbetween but i have picked out the ones for special mention. Those are my favourites, i would suggest you buy this one as it really is worth it and the tracks on it really make it to be The Very Best Euphoric Funky House Breakdown.... The Authors tastes generally edge towards Hardcore (mostly Happy Hardcore) but is happy listening to anything, CD Price is 11.99 GBP from Virgin Online with Postage included although im sure you could probably get it cheaper somewhere else. Running Time is 151 minutes so you easily get your moneys worth, The label is Ministry of Sound which is an almost guarantee of good quality... Read review

Advantages: All the best R'n'B anthems from '04 & '05
Disadvantages: A little dated now

...This is an excellent round up of all the R'n'B smashes of 2004 and 2005 with a few nostalgic classics thrown in for good measure. It covers the slow jams, the dancefloor joints and everything in between from artists as diverse as Wayne Wonder, Lucy Pearl, Kelis and Usher. CD2 also takes us back with classic gems from the likes of D'Angelo (whose 'Brown Sugar' pretty much defined and kick started the neo soul scene), Janet Jackson (with her undeniable classic 'That's The Way Love Goes') and Blackstreet (with club hit 'No Diggity' featuring Dr Dre) This album is the perfect party album and although it avoids raritites, its sound understanding of R'n'B past and present make it a must have for any music lover....

Advantages: Good variation of artists!
Disadvantages: Some songs stand weak! Quite expensive!

...Missing Album - A Certain Trigger I am undecided on this one also, I like it but at the same time I dont. Some parts of the song are really lacking inspiration. 5/10 Morrissey - The first of the gang to die Album - You are the Quarry This isn't too bad, easy on the ears! Sounds quite poppy. 6/10 Caesars - Jerk It Out Album - Paper Tigers Funky & Upbeat! Great song for this c.d! Great Tempo and the guitar rifts are legendary! 10/10 Babyshambles - F**K Forever Album - Down in Albion Good Intro and then it all goes downhill from there. No tune! Dissapointing! 1/10 Clor - Love + Pain Album - Clor Upbeat Intro, different to all the other tracks on the disc. love the pace of the song! 8/10 R.E.M - Finest Worksong Album - The best of R.E.M Quite rocky, then mellows a little throughout the song.
