About this deal

July 2019) re-issued on 2-CD - 28 tracks with only Bob Marley and the Wailers and Gary Glitter missing. I still think there's plenty more mileage in Now's Forgotten 80s series but it seems to have stalled after two releases. Grandma might be forgetting birthdays, but she'll never forget 'I'll Tumble 4 Ya' which I don't think was a single in England.

this arrived wrapped in celophane but once removed trying to open the five cd's was a joke, the whole thing was stuck together. A standard 4-CD version is also issued in a gatefold "wallet" design, which retails cheaper than the mini-hardback books.Each release is issued as a limited edition mini-hardback book, with the CDs in sleeves forming the pages of the ' yearbook' which contains an introductory overview of the year, original 7" single artwork, trivia, chart positions and a quiz. a vintage track when he recorded it in 1981, but he had a knack of recording old tracks and making them his own. The compilation comes in a special edition box, and includes an 80s pop quiz booklet, making it the perfect gift for any pop fan! November 2023) 33 tracks with only Kate Bush and Lil Louis missing, although Lil Louis was just a bonus track on the original CD version and did not appear on the vinyl and magnetic cassette versions. The series is then moved forward again, with the release of Now Yearbook 1992 in July 2023 (an Extra followed in August).

Towards the end of the series, 3-CD digipak sets were issued, but in 2010, the long-running title was retired, and all subsequent dance-themed Now collections have been issued under the Special Editions series. In November 2018, the Now team took over the " 100 Hits" brand from Demon Music Group, and in 2019 and 2020, the Special Editions series was effectively rested while 24 different Now 100 Hits compilations were issued in very quick succession, until the end of November 2020. Good selection, not forgotten for the likes of me but may be for a lot of people who grew up in the 80's. The latter contains a new retro-70s Now logo design and artwork which complements its 80s sister Yearbook series.

An earlier compilation tie-in with Smash Hits from 1987 did, however, include tracks from those years. The frequency in which they were released also varied from year to year; initially, and most frequently across the series, there would be one Now Dance volume per year, but in 1994 for example, there were four volumes released, and in 1996, there weren't any Now Dance compilations released. I could make my own cds because I already own 95% of these songs and download the rest, but some are versions I don't have on cd and I don't feel like ripping vinyl. Due to the higher cost of pressing vinyl and the limited time they are available, they are at least three times more expensive than their compact disc counterparts.
