Free Music Notes for Now That's What I Call the 80s Album
Free Music Review: Great Music From A Great Decade
Hit: 4 Stars
The "Now" series of CDs has become very popular over the past few years. Although I'm not much of a fan of the regular "Now" CDs, I was glad to see that an 80s version had been released. Growing up in the 80s, these songs contained on this CD remind me of listening to my car stereo. This great CD is loaded with some classic 80s songs as well as some good overlooked tracks as well.
Favorites such as Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl" and Rick Springfield's "Jessie's Girl" highlight the line-up. Some of the lesser-known songs include Bob Seger's "Shakedown" and Herbie Hancock's "Rockit". I do think some of the songs could have been replaced with better material. Almost every 80s compilation I've seen undoubtedly has Duran Duran's "Hungry Like the Wolf" included, and this CD is no different. I would have liked to have seen the Buggles' "Video Killed the Radio Star" included here.
Overall, I do like this CD, but I wish some different songs could have been added. Hopefully, there will be a second disc released in this series.
