This collection essentially functions as a state of the union address for top 40 circa 1998. NOW runs the gamut from hard-edged rock to dance pop, the only connecting thread being the contemporaneous popularity of all the tracks. There's the arch alternative rock of Fastball ("The Way") and Harvey Danger ("Flagpole Sitta"), the neo-swing of Cherry Poppin' Daddies ("Zoot Suit Riot") and the slickly produced, danceable pop of the Spice Girls "Say You'll Be There." The relative shelf-life of the artist may vary from cut to cut on NOW, but it's a perfect snapshot of the music that worked its way into the American psyche in the late '90s.   Technical Info Release Date : 11/03/1998 Original Release Date : 1998 Catalog ID : 46795 Label : Virgin Records (USA) Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00724384679521    Product Image
