The compilers of the set wanted to avoid defining what rock music is in 2016, but instead tried to give what people think it is, "as opposed to using a term for rock that might have defined what rock" used to be. With the festival season coming guitar music is back and this latest collection from NOW features the best indie and rock music of a generation.

Despite the popularity of the Now albums, rock compilations have been an area of neglect by record companies.

When I read the list of tracks I thought what a fantastic compilation of pop-rock/soft-rock in the spirit of the NOW. They most often focus on pop and dance but also branch out into everything from Christmas tunes to, now, Rock.

I also like that it is a three cd set with 21 songs on cd one, 22 songs on cd two, and 20 songs on cd three. The final LP begins with the perfect pairing of Fleetwood Mac’s Folk Rock ‘Don’t Stop’ and Journey’s ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’.

The songs on this compilation are a good selection - but for whatever reason NOW have used the most explicit versions of the songs. There are anthem classics by Queen, heart-swelling gems from Cher, singalong joints by Thin Lizzy and hair-raising bangers from Meat Loaf amongst many other moments of air-guitar magic across three slabs of wax. Featuring the greatest names in classic pop-rock, including Tina Turner, KISS, Cher, Alice Cooper, Blondie, and The Runaways and including era-defining classics like 'Baba O'Riley', 'Smoke On The Water' and 'Barracuda'. Side B is full of the finest Pop Rock from U2, ZZ Top, and the universally loved smashes, ‘Eye Of The Tiger’ and ‘The Final Countdown’.

This in my opinion is a fantastic album and is the only spin off Now album i have, now i have read most the reviews on here and a lot of people are criticising it for not having enough rock or worse no rock at all, i do agree with them in a way as a lot of them are a lot more Indie pop then rock.

Apart from those 2 i think every other song does, there are also some very soft rock songs that are piano driven ballads. featuring 31 tracks, this comp includes some of the biggest hits of 1988, including memorable favourites from many artists that defined the UK charts in the late 80s.
