Now That's What I Call Music! 92

Easy listening music

Ideal for a 15 year old; although age is not really the point.I have never personally been a fan of compilation albums, or not since I was about 20 'ish, however, my 15 year old son really is and casting my mind back to those days, I can remember buying albums like this as soon as they were released and even delayed purchasing singles as I knew that the "keepers" I would buy later as part of a compilation.So what do I like about Now 92? Not a lot out of personal choice, as those tracks which I particularly like already feature on albums that I have purchased for myself. Tracks by Jamie Lawson, I thought were so good that I downloaded that straight away, similarly Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran: I either have the track or have purchased the album. So in the main, for me, it has little value on the basis that whilst I do like change, my music tastes have polarised somewhat, my son on the other hand is very focussed on a number of bands and singers and I find that by purchasing him albums such as "Now 92" and the previous volumes, it allows him to discover and appreciate different sounds and styles, as well as having a relatively cheap purchase of a number of artist's "anthems"; so many are "one trick", which renders purchasing a whole album of a new band a risky affair (my collection is full a single album by a particular artist or band, with only one track being worthwhile).It is very much a taste thing I suppose. But for £13.00, I think that Now 92 offers an album which is good value and if nothing else, gives me an opportunity to listen to what has been hot and who I think will feature again in the future. My son is somewhat more enthusiastic about these albums and it reminds me of how I used to leave the retaining arm from vinyl LP's up, which resulted in the album playing over and over.In summary, great value and something which I feel someone from every family will enjoy, even if the age span is between a 15 year old boy to his 60 year old Dad.

In perfect condition and both discs work well even on our rather faulty kitchen player.

As usual there's probably about 5 or 6 tracks per CD which I like and are the reason I bought the compilation album. Therefore it's just about worth the £13 as I'd pay the same if I was to buy them separately and some can't be bought separately. Plus I'm probably too lazy to select my favourites so I just got the CD's :-PAs one previous reviewer commented... Not the best of the NOW! series but certainly not the worst.

Good quality and good service

Awesome

2015 has not been a good year for music. Uptown Funk is to me the best song of the year and after that very Little to highlight. Therefore this NOW 92 collection is very weak, one of the poorest in last 10 years (I have them all). Many fillers and just a few smashes. I will think it next time.

Remembering the wonderful nineties with fantastic music for all unlike the awful dribble sounds of so called music of 20th Century Britain.
