so trying to find a good compilation cd set based on 90's music.
However it has to be one that you can buy from ebay or amazon uk.

Anybody have any recommendations?

i tried 100 Hits: 90s [Box Set] which is crap!

Seems like you found what you were looking for but was unhappy.... I suggest you make one yourself. The 90s was filled with way to many genres, thus YMMV.

What kind of 90s music are you looking for? Alternative/Modern Rock, Rap, Bubblegum Pop? Tell me what bands you like; I'll make a compilation of 100 hits for you!

Cold Front Club Mix.... need I say more!

[peacemf]

pop music!
just wondering if anybody knew of an off the shelf album that was well worth the price is all..............

Did you look into the link I posted above?

also look into comps like totally hits, totally dance, older NOW! comps, cool traxx (k-mart compilation It's rare now I got 3 volumes), universal smash hits, platinum hits 2001. I have all those.

This isn't exactly pop, but it's straight up 90s:

Also there is Buzz Cuts, Buzz Balads 1 & 2, etc. The whole set is great.

The "Customers who bought this..." section also lists good alternatives.

Sanctified has done a good of suggesting some tracks that embody the 1990s. In my mind, there are two standout tracks I can think of from the 1990s: "My Favorite Game" by The Cardigans, and "Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia. Now admittedly i was only alive during the later half of the 1990s and I'd be doing well to remember much from the decade, but both of those songs I remember pretty well. They were on the radio pretty regularly. I'm not great with genres so they might not be what you want. If you're open to other really well known tracks, "Insomnia" by Faithless and the Monster Mix of that same song are also good examples of club music from the period.

My favorite game is marvelous. In fact I regret about forgetting about the cardigans. Maybe "Eras and Rewind" was a little more iconic. I would add it to the list.

I've always liked "Erase and Rewind" as well. Maybe there's enough room for two Cardigans tracks in the list?

I wanted to be as objective as possible with the selection, that's why i included only one song per band. If not then my selection would consist on one third nirvana, one third radiohead and the rest a combo of grunge, electronic and trip-hop

Might want to look thru these:

A few I would change...Marilyn Manson....Sweet dreams
Early 90's I give to Nirvana for sure.

Both these songs rock.
