What Now My Love - Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass

Advantages: Good shopping, bars and clubs
Disadvantages: Can be sleazy

...I spent the summer of 2003 working in California and during that time, I paid several visits across the border to Tijuana. When I told my work colleagues I was planning a trip, I was greeted with various, mostly negative reactions. "I hope they let you back into the states" "The police are corrupt, they'll arrest you for anything and take bribes". Tijuana is notorious for trouble and has a bad reputation amongst lots of Americans, who will no doubt have a story about "a friend of a friend who was arrested for crossing the street and has never been seen again" but my opinion is that, it is fine to visit as long as you are sensible. * Passport/visa information * Americans do not require a passport to cross the mexican border, but should take id such as a current driving licence. Visitors of other nationalities should... Read review

...Now That's What I call The 80's was one of the cd's I found in my Christmas stocking this year, all my family knows I love cheesy 80's music so I wasn't surprised by this choice. Initially it seemed like a really good cd, at least on first appearances, part of the Now series and featuring one of my favourite musical decades you would think it could do no wrong, sadly there are too many flaws making this cd a major let down. Consisting of 3 discs and 60 tracks, with a wide range of the decade's finest (and admittedly not so fine) artists, this should have been possibly the greatest 80's compilation of all time. The Now series of albums have in the past been known to feature a few really strong successful tracks backed up by lesser known songs and artists, but when they specifically release a 3 disc set dedicated to one era of music you...

...I have been buying the "Now" CD's for as long as I can remember. When I was younger I often recieved them as birthday or christmas presents because of my love of music. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ About The CD ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now 68 was released to the public on Monday 19th November 2007. The CD's proper name is "Now That's What I Call Music" but it is often just shortened to Now. There are 3 Now CD's released every year, one around easter time, one in the summer and one in mid November. Now 68 is a 2 disc compilation CD which has 44 tracks in total on it. Each disc contains 22 songs on them sung by different artists and pop groups. ~~~~~~~~~~ The Cover ~~~~~~~~~~ The front cover of Now 68 is really bright, bold and colourful. It is a really simplistic design, and the use of colour on the cover is really eyecatching. Now Thats... Read review
