The amount of albums NOW manage to push out is remarkable. The only ones I still get are the 'normal' ones, Now 90 is still in my car, it's epic!

There are loads since Jenny Fisher took over. About 50+ spin-offs and about 20 of them were compiled by Ashley Abram

They have revealed the tracklist for NOW Classic Rock http://www.amazon.co.uk/Thats-What-Call-Cl...cks/B00WSAVRHA/ So glad "Don't Stop Believin" isn't on there

Not a bad tracklist to be fair!

Not a bad tracklist to be fair!

At least it's an album which actually lives up to its name

Disc 3 could be a bit questionable, but they put some effort into this one! I like it.

I like that they but Bring Me the horizon and 30 Seconds to Mars as they are songs that wouldnt be on normal Nows but they arent technically classics tho....

Why is the sequencing so rubbish on CD3?

 

1. Walk This Way - RUN-DMC feat. Aerosmith

2. Are You Gonna Go My Way - Lenny Kravitz

3. Fight for Your Right - The Beastie Boys

 

Who in their right mind would seperate Walk This Way from Fight For Your Right with Are You Gonna Go My Way?

I would argue that 'Kings and Queens' is a modern day classic to rock music fans, plus it's around 5 years old now, so not a bad shout there really!

A spin-off they should is "Now That's What I Call Movies 2015" and include songs from films which never appeared on the first version ie.

I'm still enjoying NOW 90s from last year. Much better than the 2009 version. Granted it's nothing unique, but the song choices are perfect, the order they're in and the pretty colourful cover is incredible :wub:

 

 

Anyone else got a fave NOW Spin-Off? The NOW Running Ones are also incredible for a great mix of old and new.

I also love Now 90s from last year. Plus I really enjoy Now Rock and Now 30 Years.

I've been trying to fill the gaps in my Now collection over the past couple of years, and finally bought Now 55 today! One I've been wanting for an absolute age, so many wonderful 2003 moments on that one: 'Ignition', 'Cry Me A River', 'No Letting Go', 'No Good Advice', 'Not Gonna Get Us', 'Fool No More', 'Fast Food Song' (:ph34r:), 'Fly On the Wings of Love', 'Husan', 'Loneliness', 'Satisfaction', 'Sunlight', 'Come Undone', 'You Said No', 'Misfit', 'Everything Eventually', 'Shape' and 'Mesmerize'. :wub:

Wasn't a fan of NOW Rock. It seemed like a random selection of songs for "Rock". Now 30 Years was incredible :wub:

YES! Love NOW 55, Number 1's wise it's the weakest, but "tuuuuuunnneeee" wise, it's incredible! They were so desperate they included the 2nd Kym Marsh single, Melanie C and Appleton! I miss flop pop songs on NOW albums :lol:

Love NOW 55, Number 1's wise it's the weakest

When NOW 91 gets released, it will probably have the same amount of number ones

But at least there's a better reason this time, thanks to the charts becoming so stale. Back then the NOW team kept losing the big hits thanks to the re-brand of the HITS series.

NOW 16 holds the record for the least number ones on a NOW with 0. The reason NOW 16 never had any number ones at all because all the songs which reached number one 'round the time were on HITS 11

'On The Horizon' is one of my fave Mel singles :lol: So underrated :wub: 'Come On Over' by Kym was great too!

Now 55 is the heatwave album, as most of disc 1 especially reminds me of drowning in 30+ degree warmth that summer :P The cover for it helps too. Now 64 and some of Now 85 are the other warm weather Nows.

Considering what they couldn't get, Now 55 has always been a solid fave of mine. SO many memories and tunes. Proof that you don't need every hit to make a damn good album. I wish I was still 14!

cool
