This brand new 40 track compilation has links to the USA television crime series Mad Men that has been on screen since 2007. The running times are CD1: approx 61 minutes & CD2: approx 60 minutes. Whilst the series is certainly not for everyone the music on this excellent Not Now 2 CD will entertain and with such an eclectic mix of performers and styles makes for an unusual selection. All of the classic vocal performers are here along with a mix of jazz and country performers. The sound quality is excellent and the liner notes by Michael Heatley set the scene for the music. Attractively packaged and great value this is sure to be a winner with fans of the show.Highlights for me are the Ella Fitzgerald performances Manhattan (1956) & Someone to Watch Over me (1959) and the strangely hypnotic "Gopher Mambo" from Yma Sumac and dating from 1954. It is also good to hear formative recordings from the likes of Johnny Mathis and all time favourites such as "Beyond the Sea" from Bobby Darin (1958).

This was playing in a little boutique, and I liked t so much, I asked for details.
Going straight to the nearest shop, I bought their only copy....I was able to get
a second for use in my car from Amazon. Almost all wonderful songs by the original artists. Fantastic value too!!

Excellent compilation album, throwing in the memorable end songs to various episodes with other doozies that you might not instantly recognise. Though it isn't the official soundtrack, it's got many of the best numbers from the series and is filled with hidden gems. A treat.

Disappointing
Don't want to say more than 'disappointing'. There are fewer gems on this than the old style newspaper compilation CDs.
Packaged well but content failed to inspire.

Not quite what i expected
The music in the series is a lot cooler than that of the CD. As a stand alone album for 60's music it's fine.

Disappointing selection
I admit I wasn't familiar with all the songs on this album, but having enjoyed the Mad Men series enormously I had hoped to be inspired by "Music that Inspired Mad Men". Read more
