Various Artists NOW - Yearbook 1984 Limited Vinyl 3LP Set
Overview:
First released in October 2021, this 3LP vinyl sold out quickly. Now available again – repressed as black vinyl – while stocks last! NOW Music is proud to present the continuation to our Yearbook series, NOW - YEARBOOK 1984; a 3LP compilation featuring 42 defining hits that ruled the charts in 1984, including No.1s from Lionel Richie, Chaka Khan, Duran Duran, Frankie Goes To Hollywood and George Michael (solo and with Wham!), together with huge hits from U2, Spandau Ballet, and Deniece Williams. 1984 was one of the most iconic and successful years for singles ever – with the decade’s four biggest sellers all released this year. NOW - YEARBOOK 1984 reflects this amazing year with synth-pop classics such as ‘Here Comes The Rain Again’, ‘Self Control’, ‘Together In Electric Dreams’, and ‘Never Ending Story’. Celebrate the success of electro, Hi-NRG and rap becoming vital ingredients in dance-pop, with ‘I Feel For You’ by Chaka Khan, ‘Jump (For My Love)’ by The Pointer Sisters, The S.O.S Band’s ‘Just Be Good To Me’, and the defining ‘White Lines’ from Grandmaster Flash & Grandmaster Melle-Mel leading the way. 1984 saw the emergence of a huge number of new artists hitting the charts, including Alison Moyet, and Nik Kershaw. Plus, established greats continued from strength to strength, including Elton John, The Police, Billy Joel, Tina Turner, and Paul McCartney. Take a trip back to one of the greatest years of pop music ever. A must-have compilation for every lover of pop music.
