Description
NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL MUSIC NOW Yearbook 1985-1989: The Final Chapter (2026 UK/EU limited edition 42-track triple album 3-LP pressed on Silver Vinyl. The concluding volume in the celebrated 80s Yearbook series gathers 42 essential tracks that revisit the latter half of one of the most dynamic periods in UK chart history, spotlighting standout singles that didn’t feature on the individual year sets. The collection opens with Queen’s cinematic ‘Who Wants To Live Forever’, moving into the chart-topping breakthrough ‘West End Girls’ from Pet Shop Boys and elegant synth-pop from Eurythmics. Across the three LPs, the tracklist spans reggae-pop from UB40, alternative edge from New Order and The Cure, polished rock from Bon Jovi, and era-defining vocals from Whitney Houston. Elsewhere, there are appearances from Freddie Mercury, Heart, Bruce Springsteen, Tina Turner and De La Soul, reflecting the breadth of pop, rock, soul and dance that defined the second half of the decade. A substantial triple LP set that captures the scale and stylistic range of 1985-1989 in one cohesive collection. Wide-spine picture sleeve, factory sealed)
