The 3CD set delivers some big pop moments on the first disc including Wham!’s ‘I’m Your Man’, ‘Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves’, Eurythmics collaboration with Aretha Franklin, Tears For Fears’ Head Over Heels, Howard Jones’ ‘Look Mama’, Go West’s Don’t Look Down (The Sequel), Thompson Twins’ ‘Don’t Mess With Doctor Dream’ and many more.

The final disc starts off exploring mid-80s Dance, Electro and Hip-Hop crossover before moving on to some ‘grown up’ pop from the likes of Sting, Bryan Ferry, more Tears For Fears and Marillion. Yearbook ’85 ends blissfully with Art of Noise’s ‘Moments in Love’.
Now Yearbook ’85 will be released on 6 January 2023.
