Relapse Singles Series Vol.3 - Various Artists

Advantages: Bouncy, traditional scots music
Disadvantages: Quite hard to get hold of

...**What Is It?** The Celtic Collection vol. 3 is Ceilidh music. A celidh, by the way, is a dance with only scottish dancing. This CD has 12 tradtional songs so it would be great if your where hosting a Ceilidh or if you just love dancing! This is a one disk CD written by various artists. **Quality of Music?** It is great! It is very clear and you can hear the accordion espiecially well! There is no voice in this and only the main folk instruments accordion,fiddle and a little drums. It is very well recorded so you can put it as loud as you like or a softly as you like and you can still hear it clearly. **Cover Quality** Very nice. Has a celtic not around the edge as a border then a view of the ocean. Think it is Loch lomond but not sure? Anyway very nice picture and the back with the traclist is clear. It does lack color...

...Reloaded Vol 3 I bought this CD when it first came out in 2001. I remember wandering around Woolies with about £30 in my pocket. I bought this CD and another compilation album. I think it cost me £14.99 but of course now it's 4 years later. You can find it on Amazon for about 50p and on Ebay starting from 10p. For 37 tracks, I think that's a big bargain. Also on Amazon, you can hear samples of all the songs, which is very useful to know if you'll like the whole album or not. Reloaded 3 is the third double CD in the Reloaded compilation list. I can't comment on how much better or worst it is to the other 2 before this album as I've never heard them but I can tell you that this album definitely grows on you. The cover is a lovely army camouflage which figures through out the CD case and it says Massive Hits From … The lay... Read review

Advantages: Classic tracks mixed by some of the leading lights in the industry.
Disadvantages: Some of the tracks seem to be space fillers rather than floor fillers.

...Out of the Bonkers series, Bonkers Vol 3 has to be one of the best. 3 CDs containing tracks from the cream of the crop of Hppy Hardcore from 1997. Disc one is mixed by Hixxy, one of the original mixmasters and features some of his own classic tracks including "Together Forever", "Return To Toytown" and "Starry Night". Hardcore die hards will also recognise all time favourites such as Scott Brown in one of his many alter-egos as Q-Tex and the awesome "Power of Love 97". This disc is incredibly happy, bouncy and truly conveys the feeling and the atmosphere of Happy Hardcore in that era. Disc 2 is mixed by Sharkey and the tone gets slighly darker but no less happy as we are transported into the hardcore realm which preceded freeform, Sharkey's own brand of fast, bouncy dance which has made him really stand out from the crowd. Disc 3... Read review
