1986 ‘various artists’ compilation Now That’s What I Call Music 8 will be issued as a two-CD set for the first time later this month.
Issued in November 1986, just three months after number seven, Now 8 was a massive seller, going quadruple platinum in the UK and reaching number one in the charts. They actually all reached number one (except for Now 4) until the rules were changed to exclude compilations from the ‘main’ album chart (Now 13 was the last chart-topper, fact fans).
Now 8 contained “32 top chart hits” (a 17-track CD was also released) and is a decent compilation, starting particularly strongly with Duran Duran‘s transatlantic top ten hit ‘Notorious’ and the remix of Pet Shop Boys ‘Suburbia’ – the fourth, and final single from ‘Please’.
There’s no confirmation, yet, as to how faithful the reissue will be to the original 32-track collection (the lack of attention to detail around mixes and random omissions has been well documented) but if ‘they’ are going to have licensing issues, then let’s hope we lose Nick Berry this time (with his Eastenders-promoted) ‘Every Loser Wins’, rather than, say, David Bowie!
