At the bottom of most of the magazine index is a "Sample Shop" section, though it's not included in the magazines from 1998 for some reason. It's in most of them though. To access the most recent 6 editions of the magazine you have to pay a small yearly fee, US$36, and you get access for an entire year. Quite a good deal for the plethora of knowledge contained in their magazines. The article below, in particular, is pretty good; it's a list of the sample CDs the 3 sample cd reviewers for Sound On Sound would pick out if they were stuck on a deserted island and they could only take a few sample CDs. Of course this -is- from 5 years ago so there very well could be better sample CDs out now. :-) http://www.sospubs.co.uk/sos/1997_articles/sep97/desertisland.html
