NOW 12″80s: 1987 – Part Two

NOW Music continue their 12″ 80s series with a 4CD set offering more extended hits from 1987.

NOW 12″80s: 1987 – Part Two offers further evidence that 1987 was ‘not as bad as you think’ since among the 46 tracks are two Pet Shop Boys extended versions (Dusty ‘collab’, ‘What Have I Done To Deserve This’ and the Christmas No 1, ‘Always On My Mind’), a-ha’s ‘The Living Daylights’, Duran Duran’s ‘Meet El Presidente’ (their first CD single and admittedly a weaker track from Notorious), Eurythmics’ ‘Missonary Man’ and the ‘Three Coins In a Fountain Mix’ Terence Trent D’Arby’s ‘Wishing Well’.

They are all on CD 1, elsewhere you’ll find the extended version of Curiosity Killed The Cat’s excellent ‘Misfit’, the ‘John Potoker Extended Mix’ of Fine Young Cannibals’ ‘Ever Fallen in Love’, ‘The Whole Story’ version of ABC’s ‘The Night You Murdered Love’, the superb ‘Superb, Superb Mix’ of Swing Out Sister’s ‘Twilight World’ (a great mix, but an odd choice, given it’s effectively the album version) and more long mixes from New Order, Simply Red, Wet Wet Wet, Johnny Hates Jazz and Jan Hammer.

NOW 12″80s: 1987 – Part Two is out on 16 October 2026.
