Now That’s What I Call Music 11

The reissues of the original Now That’s What I Call Music compilations continue with a new 2CD set of volume 11, which was originally issued in spring 1988.

This compilation charts the changing face of pop as we moved into the late 1980s, with Stock Aitken Waterman-enabled hits from Kylie Minogue, Mel & Kim and Bananarama; new bands Wet Wet Wet and Johnny Hates Jazz both offering single #3 from their debut albums and the emergence of a new dance era with groups like Bomb The Bass, The Beatmasters feat. The Cookie Crew and Coldcut feat. Yazz & The Plastic Population.

There’s also time for novelty songs (Morris Minor & The Majors), the 1987 Christmas number one (Pet Shop Boys’ ‘Always On My Mind’), Morrissey’s solo debut single (‘Suedehead’) and Sinead O’Connor’s excellent ‘Mandinka’.

You may be wondering if there are any tracks missing. The answer is ‘yes’; the original 30-track compilation is now 28 tracks since Eddy Grant’s ‘Gimme Hope Jo’Anna’ and Whitesnake’s ‘Give Me All Your Love’ are both AWOL.

This set was originally issued in full across two CDs and it’s not particularly hard to get hold of. With omissions and the probable ‘wrong’ versions of songs, it does beg the question, what’s the point in carrying on with these?

Now That’s What I Call Music 11 is reissued as a 2CD set on 8 April 2022.
