^ it looks like another good addition to the Now Yearbook series.
It'll be interesting to see what the next Yearbook year will be. The series jumped forward to 1992 then back to 1973. Personally I'd love to see a Now Yearbook / Now Yearbook Extra for 1977 to complete the run for "my era" which is roughly 1977 to 1986 though 1974 would also be very welcome.

Also, I've just realised i'd overlooked the release of the Now Yearbook Extra 1992 so I've just ordered that.
I must admit I'm not overly keen on the album but have just ordered it as I have all the other Yearbook / Yearbook Extra CDs.

I see they managed to get Pet Shop Boys on a yearbook Perhaps, Neil & Chris/their record label wanted to get their Smash: The Singles compilation released for a period of time before allowing their tracks to be used (again)?
Good to see "Now Towers" have applied the Howard Jones & Nik Kershaw together in the tracklisting law to Debbie Gibson & Tiffany.

There could have been more Tiffany, but other than that it's a pretty stellar tracklisting!

yes that could be the reason they couldn't get them until now, it would make sense

It feels wrong listing Sign your name as by Sananda Maitreya, when he was Terence Trent D'arby at the time. The name Sananda Maitreya didn't exist until 2001.

What a totally unnecessary release. Solely issued to suck money out of Now collectors.

I wonder how much each of these will cost? I like the Now Yearbooks and they're reasonably priced but it does seem like Now are releasing a lot of similar product with similar tracklistings under a myriad of different titles.

^ Lil Louis - French Kiss is also absent. Wasn't the Brother Beyond track a bonus cut for the original cassette or CD version?

I can live without 'French kiss', but it's a shame about Kate Bush - especially as she has appeared on some of the Yearbooks already.

It must be the original CD version, as I have the original vinyl version with Lil Louis' awful record most definitely on it, but no Brother Beyond.
