Product Information

The standout track here the live version of Them Heavy People by Kate Bush,- possibly on CD for the first time in it's single version edit format.

On that basis, it probably made sense for them to do a mixture of the five years rather than an individual disc for each year – given the dearth of tracks from 1980 and 1981. As NOW continue to spoil us all with another 'Yearbook' compilation, it is proving to be a successful effort.

A fabulous run of disco is up next including the synth-driven production of Sparks’ ‘The Number One Song In Heaven’, soulful vocals from Donna Summer, the timeless Chic and Sister Sledge, and Rose Royce’s ‘Is It Love You’re After’ – before the first disc closes with one of the years’ most unexpected hits from Fiddler’s Dram with ‘Daytrip To Bangor’. So yes – availability on Spotify is the primary criteria here and I have a strong preference for single mixes. Disc 2 opens with three Ska/Pop crossover hits from Madness, The Selecter and The Specials, before taking in some Classic Rock including Meat Loaf, Electric Light Orchestra and the collaboration between Gary Moore and Phil Lynott. Luckily the recent Now Dance 80s set has more than made up for any slight disappointment in the yearbooks.The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products.

There’s a number of standard single versions of songs that appear on the recently announced 12″ 70s compilation, including Wings’ ‘Goodnight Tonight’, Cliff Richard’s ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore’ and The B-52’s ‘Rock Lobster’, but that’s hardly an issue.

In some instances, I have had to settle for album versions on Spotify whereas for Mixcloud I would want to upload the single mix so there would be inconsistency. Likewise Roadrunner by Jonathan Richman uses the fast version not the slow one (much confusion caused by inconsistent naming of this track over the years!

Disc 2 opens with three Ska/Pop crossover hits from Madness, The Selecter and The Specials, leading into sublime ‘Lovers-Rock’ from Janet Kay with ‘Silly Games’, before taking in some Classic Rock including Meat Loaf, Electric Light Orchestra and the collaboration between Gary Moore and Phil Lynott. NOW Yearbook Extra 1979 is a 3 CD (sadly no vinyl for these “extra” releases”) compilation, highlighting an additional 67 tracks from the charts of 1979, and acting as a companion piece to the recently released NOW Yearbook 1979 ( orange vinyl / CD). Flipping to Side B, Classic Rock from Meat Loaf and Electric Light Orchestra is joined by timeless hits from Billy Joel, Gerry Rafferty, Dave Edmunds and the debut ‘Stop Your Sobbing’ by Pretenders.
