Yiannis Kotsiras I Will Ask The Songs (2013)

NOW Music is proud to present NOW That’s What I Call Timeless…The Songs.

Released a few months after she was posthumously inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I Feel Love: The Collection is a fine if imperfect introduction to Donna Summer. It smartly includes the original version of "I Feel Love," as well as Patrick Cowley's towering 16-minute remix, and there are other essentials, including "Love to Love You Baby," "Bad Girls," "Hot Stuff," and "She Works Hard for the Money." The absence of several other career highlights – such as "Try Me, I Know We Can Make It," "Spring Affair," "State of Independence," and "Dinner with Gershwin" – is problematic, but this set scores points for its second disc, a showcase for her incredible side-length pieces.

Across 4 CDs, 78 of the greatest songs from the past six decades from some of the most-loved artists ever. Queen’s anthem ‘Somebody To Love’ begins, with ‘Every Breath You Take’, the fifth No. 1 from The Police, and 10cc’s classic ‘I’m Not In Love’ following. Disc 1 also includes 70s smashes ‘Mr. Blue Sky’ from Electric Light Orchestra, ‘Baker Street’ from Gerry Rafferty, ‘Heart Of Glass’ from Blondie – and ‘Wuthering Heights’ – the song that not only launched the career of Kate Bush but became the first No. 1 in the UK self-penned by a female artist. The Beach Boys, Ike & Tina Turner, Dionne Warwick and Aretha Franklin are all present with their 60s signature songs, alongside more contemporary classics ‘Beautiful Day’ from U2, ‘Mr. Brightside’ from The Killers, ‘The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite’ from R.E.M. and iconic female voices on ‘Brass In Pocket’ (Pretenders), ‘Back To Black’ (Amy Winehouse), and Sinead O’Connor’s incredible interpretation of Prince’s ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’.

Dr Christian Jessen, the unshockable presenter of the hit television shows, Embarrassing Bodies and Supersize vs. Superskinny, is always being tackled by strangers wanting answers to their most private medical questions. Like all doctors, Dr Christian finds people sidling up to him with their questions at parties, on trains, and even in the street.

While there are plenty of Ventures collections floating around, none are as massive as Floating World's Big Box of the Ventures. Made up of 165 tracks and spread out over six discs, this set shows just how eclectic the band's sounds were, touching on elements of surf, lounge, country, and early rock & roll. While the bulk of the tracks here are stereo versions, every disc includes a handful of mono tracks, giving fans a taste of both worlds with some alternate mixes. For someone new to the band, there are certainly more streamlined ways to get an introduction to the Ventures' sprawling back catalog, but for surf enthusiasts, Big Box of the Ventures is a dynamite listen.
