NOW Yearbook 1985-1989 Extra 5 x Colour Vinyl LP
Each release in our ‘Yearbook’ series includes a vinyl edition, featuring a selection of tracks taken from the full line-up found on the CD version, plus we have also released an accompanying CD ‘Extra’ for each of the years… Inevitably, this has meant that a huge number of incredible tracks have not been included on the LP versions…. 
NOW are proud to present NOW - Yearbook 1985 - 1989: Vinyl Extra - a 5LP boxset featuring an album per year for the period 1985-1989, each featuring an incredible line-up of tracks taken from either the ‘Yearbook’ or ‘Extra’ that haven’t been included on a ‘Yearbook’ vinyl edition before. 
72 moments of Pop magic in a numbered limited-edition boxset – with each vinyl pressed in the colour of the years’ original ‘Yearbook’. 
1985: Opening with Wham!’s UK No.1 ‘I’m Your Man’, before a run of huge hits including from Go West, Dead Or Alive, Level 42 with ‘Something About You’, Tears For Fears’ ‘Head Over Heels’ and sophisticated pop from Bryan Ferry with ‘Don’t Stop The Dance’ and Dee C. Lee’s ‘See The Day’ …Flip the LP for Simple Minds’ anthemic ‘Alive And Kicking’, alongside The Dream Academy, Billy Idol and John Parr’s ‘St. Elmo’s Fire (Man in Motion)’ – and following Pat Benatar, Paul Young’s U.S. chart-topper ‘Every Time You Go Away’ and UK No.1 duet ‘I Know Him So Well’ from Elaine Paige & Barbara Dickson.
