Platinum Collection
Cliff Richard
EMI

I see you, the Cliff Richard fan swaying rhythmically in time to your cassette player. Time to update to the Cliff Richard Platinum Collection, three CDs (that’s Compact Disc) with 73 tracks (count them, I dare you).

Admittedly I didn’t listen to them all – I had to draw the line somewhere. This album is destined for a mess where members sit at the bar and reminisce of the days of real tunes and melodies. You might consider putting a Sir Cliff ringtone on your mobile – your soldiers and subbies will show you how.

Rosenrot
Rammstein
Universal records
THOSE quirky German metal-heads have been at it again. A combination of clever, though very dark lyrics, and a mix of heavy beats have produced Rosenrot.

With ditties like Benzin, Wo Bist Du and Feuer und Wasser, this album probably won’t have you singing along, unless you’re down with German, but will have you rocking on. The cover work is special, in a Rammstein way, but it’s the jive of the music we’re looking at, not the unusual dress-ups of the group’s members.

Wolfmother
Wolfmother
Universal Music
TRIPLE J raves about them and they get plenty of air time. It’s a case of everything you’ve heard in 60s rock is running through Wolfmother’s veins. It would be a mistake to compare them to other bands they are uniquely Wolfmother.
Arabic Café
Various artists
Dynamic Music and Media

IF you enjoy a spot of world music, the new series of triple CD sets from Dynamic might be just the aural ticket out of your mundane world.

Arabic Café is one in a collection of lounge music from Dynamic, including Punjabi Lounge, Buddha Lounge, Buddha Café and Bedouin Café. The café set will have you chilling, for over three hours; not ideal for a long drive if others in the vehicle aren’t world music fans.
