Seems kind of strange that these guys would release a greatest hits package so early in their career. I mean, they were only five albums into it by the time this disc was issued by East West in October 1996. Then again, greatest hits albums are not a new thing in the music industry. Even [...]

The Way I Feel – Remy Shand

This album was first brought to my attention back in mid 2002, while I was lurking on the Prince fansite PrinceOrg. It was after reading somebody’s own personal review of the album, that I began downloading some of the songs off Kazaa in order to give myself a little taste of what he was raving [...]

This album was of course the follow up to her “Love Deluxe” album from 1992. Also, her greatest hits set from 1994, which I personally don’t count as a ‘new’ album in her discography, but perhaps some of her other fans do. Anyhow, it seemed that before Sade released this album, a few of her [...]

Such bands included Pride, Halo [...]

Album number nine from Snoop Doggy Dogg (yeah, I still call him that) was issued in the Australian stores on March 11th, 2008. Again, this was a disc that I really had no intention of actually purchasing, as I hardly consider myself to be a fan of his. However, after really struggling to write this [...]
