Now Yearbook ’83 Extra!

Companion 3CD set

By Paul Sinclair

Eighties pop fans enjoying Now That’s What I Call Music‘s new Yearbook series will be interested to know that a supplementary compilation to June’s Now Yearbook ’83 will be released in December.

Now Yearbook ’83 Extra offers 60 more tracks from this superb year and features a bevy of usual suspects (Wham!, Paul Young, Eurythmics, Culture Club etc.) while showcasing the rise of some ‘alternative’ artists (including The Cure and Echo and The Bunnymen). There’s some quirky selections to keep things interesting such as Tears For Fears‘ ‘The Way You Are’, Elvis Costello & The Attractions‘ ‘Everyday I Write The Book’ and ‘Two Hearts Beat As One’, the non-top 10 hit from U2‘s 1983 album, War.

Now Yearbook ’83 Extra is a three-CD set and features 60 tracks (click image to enlarge)

No vinyl for this release and sadly no deluxe ‘book’ packaging this time around. This will be presented very much in the style of the non-deluxe Yearbooks.

Nevertheless, a worthy companion to the original compilation, this Now Yearbook ’83 Extra three-CD set will be issued on 10 December 2021.
