Organ Radio Vol.6 (Get Out Of The Goddamn Pool Suzie There's Big Ugly Sharks In There) - Various Artists

Advantages: Great insight into other artists
Disadvantages: A few dodgy tracks

...Superb album, a few dodgy tracks but easy to skip past these. Even if you only like a quarter of the artists there will be some that you'll be really surprised with. I'm not a big fan of Mika but i've got to give him credit for this version, if you're not a big fan of him this is defo worth a listen. Klaxons are amazing on this album. Don't like the Fray or Jack Peanut, but that's just a personal choice. I'm really glad that Radio 1 have decided to release their live lounge sessions, it's taken a while for them to realise that this is a great money spinner. Can't wait for the next one to come out. I'd say this is a must buy if the price is right!... Read review

Advantages: Very inexpensive album set.
Disadvantages: You may already have some of the many tracks.

...This compilation consists of a ten, yes TEN CD boxed set, each CD having 20 tracks all original recordings. At a total cost of £19.95 in most high street record stores that works out at only £2.00 per CD which is pretty good value by my reconning. I actually bought it as I set a lot of quizzes and thought it would be good for music round setting which of couse it is but it actually good to play at parties etc, many of my friends remarking on the good quality and the variety of songs. There is a good range of artistes on the CDs from both sides of the Atlantic. there are many "classic" songs as well as some that you may have forgotten but are pleased to hear again after many years. Artists are too many to mention but include, thre Animals, Manfred Mann, Del Shannon, Hot Chocolate, Suzi Quatro, Don McClean, Leo Sayer, The Hollies and many... Read review

Advantages: Variations of well known songs.
Disadvantages: none

...Brill album, much better than the first Radio one live lounge album. All tracks have been previously played on the radio one live lounge with Joe Willie, but I never get a chance to listen to them all first time they are on the radio, so its nice to hear them all. Some tracks really funny and are all by well-known artist's. The artists and bands either record alternative recordings of there own songs or ones by other artists, which is really interesting. I really love the Amy winehouse - Valerie its a slower version and is really good. It features allot of the top 40 bands and gives you a chance of hearing unusual tracks that you would not normally hear from such band albums. Highly Recommended.... Read review
