RADIO 1's Live Lounge Volume 2!!!
Thursday, November 01, 2007
Following the success of the Radio 1's Vol. 1 CDs, we finally have the Vol. 2 with even more awesome live covers. I was super excited about this CD because of the line-up including Corinne Bailey Rae, Damien Rice, Coldplay, and KT Tunstall. These are all live covers, many with an acoustic feel and often times they get jazzy- are real good twist to these pop songs.
A lot of comps and various artists CDs usually don't have 40 songs! This 2-CD collection is a great party background, and it's cheesy but people will definitely be asking where you got it. Way to be in the music-know! It's a great listen all the way through. Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol. 2 was released on the 22nd and it's quickly on it's way up to a top seller. Get yours here. We Got some tracks for you and the playlist. Enjoy!
