Gary Crowley’s Lost 80s Vol 2
80s compilation for the discerning fan
The 2019 various artists collection, Gary Crowley’s Lost 80s, is followed up in June with a second volume that, as before, features tracks from the 1980s (1980 to 1986, specifically) that stray just a little bit off the beaten track.
A four-CD ‘media book’ edition offers 65 tracks and is themed by disc. The song selection includes tracks by lesser known artists as well as lesser known tracks by more familiar artists! There’s a few 12-inch versions peppered across the selections, too.
The 32-page book includes an introduction and track-by-track notes by Gary Crowley, plus memories of the era from Mick Talbot, Corinne Drewery, Dr Robert, Glenn Gregory, and more.
A 2LP clear vinyl edition cuts the selection down to 21 tracks but does maintain the themes from its CD cousin (each CD becomes one side of vinyl).
A 500-only limited edition of the 4CD version of Lost 80s Vol 2 comes with a print signed by Gary Crowley. This is exclusive to Amazon UK, and, with the current restrictions in place, is available to UK residents only. A standard 4CD is more widely available.
Gary Crowley’s Lost 80s Vol 2 will be released on 23 July 2021 (was 25 June), via Edsel/Demon Records.
