What A Difference Two Years Makes - Backwash

Advantages: Superb compilaton of quality live songs
Disadvantages: Not enough CDs - I want more

...You may or may not know, but I am a big Rush fan. Having recently buying their latest release “Vapor Trails” and attending an amazing concert on their “Vapor Trails” tour, I got all nostalgic and wanted to play all my Rush albums again! As I listen to most music in the car on my commute to work, I raided my CD collection and found that I had very little Rush on CD!!! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhh! Well I rushed to the store and though – there are so many to buy? Which one should I get? Well after spying “Different Stages” I thought, what better than to get a live album that also has 3-CDs and an abundance of my favorite Rush songs on it!!! Different stages is perhaps the ultimate Rush CD – not only is it a compilation of their best tracks from the last 25 years (pre Vapor Trails... Read review

Advantages: A selection of the finest tracks released by big name artists.
Disadvantages: Song styles mixed and varied, but not enough.

...As far as I am concerned, with the music I listen to, I would pick out a few Now compilations out of the collection that have fought their way into my household somewhere near the top.

Advantages: Some good tunes, suitable for anyone any age
Disadvantages: Also some poor quality tunes, getting worse each time a new ones out

...to though. This was released on the 4th February 2008. This song is taken from the album 'Set the Mood'. *8. Kelly Rowland - Work This is an R&B style song really good instrumentals and vocals but somehow just not a song I can get into. *9. Soulja Boy Tell'em - Crank That A hip-hop song that comes across as a bit of a Dizzy Rascal wanna be, don't like this song at all *10. Britney Spears - Piece Of Me From Britney's album called Blackout, the lyrics are really good but the tune does not match at all. Britney Spear's older stuff was a lot better quality than this. *11. T2 feat. Jodie Aysha - Heartbroken One of the biggest tracks of the year, quite an older tune that has been out a while, very listenable to tune, another one of my favourites on this album. *12. H "two" O feat. Platnum - What's It Gonna Be This is a fast sounding... Read review
