NOW Yearbook: The Vault 1986

Dive deeper into the rich and diverse pop story of 1986 with NOW Yearbook: The Vault. This 4-CD box set uncovers essential singles that may not have dominated the highest chart positions but are crucial to the year's musical landscape. Featuring 77 tracks, this collection celebrates songs that were sometimes overshadowed, highlights from major albums, or international successes, all deserving a place in this continued celebration of 80s pop.

Disc One opens with Paul McCartney's classic ballad 'Only Love Remains' and Eurythmics' 'The Miracle Of Love'. It also includes The Lover Speaks' original version of 'No More "I Love You"s', Sting's 'Moon Over Bourbon Street', and Chris Rea's single version of his 1986 title track. The disc features power-pop gems from The Bangles, Belinda Carlisle, Billy Idol, and Daryl Hall, alongside tracks from Paul Young, Wax, Nick Heyward, and a run of synth-pop hits from Nik Kershaw, Howard Jones, Thompson Twins, Ultravox, Belouis Some, and Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, closing with ABC's 'Ocean Blue'.

Disc Two begins with David Sylvian's 'Taking The Veil' from his second solo album 'Gone To Earth', followed by Talk Talk's 'Living In Another World'.
