NOW 12" 80s: Volume One - 1980-1982 - Various Artists [VINYL]

NOW Music is very proud to announce 'NOW Presents 12' 80s: Volume One - 1980-1982', as a stunning 5-LP box-set. A limited edition and numbered set with each of the 5-LPs pressed in a different transparent colour vinyl - red, yellow, green, blue and purple. In 2023 the 12-inch 80s series began on CD - a year by year journey through the decade with each release presenting a fantastic selection of 12-inch versions from that year. This edition features 44 12-inch extended or remixed versions from the years 1980-1982 - and for many tracks this marks the first time back on vinyl since their original release. Kicking off with Blondie's huge full-length version of 'Call Me' and the long version of Grace Jones' take on 'Love Is the Drug', LP1 stays in 1980 with influential classics from Loleatta Holloway and Change, plus electronic disco from Lipps Inc. and floor-fillers from Liquid Gold and The Spinners. 'Fade to Grey' from Visage was released at the end of 1980 and the 12-inch version opens LP2 ahead of the timeless Chic-produced and written 'Spacer' from Sheila & B. Devotion. 1981 dancefloor favourites are featured from Earth, Wind & Fire and Odyssey, ahead of extended 12-inch versions of pop gems from Dollar, Haircut 100 and 'Physical' from Olivia Newton-John. 1981 was a stellar year for UK artists on the charts, and included here are Duran Duran with the 'Night Version' of 'Planet Earth', the 12-inch versions of The Human League's 'The Sound of the Crowd', and 'Glow' from Spandau Ballet, plus the extended version of the era-defining #1 'Ghost Town' by The Specials. LP3 continues the celebration with synth-pop essentials, extended versions from Talk Talk, Heaven 17, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Soft Cell, Japan, Gary Numan and Simple Minds. Next out of the box - LP4, and it opens with Hi-NRG classics from the Boys Town Gang, Patrick Cowley feat. Sylvester, and Donna Summer - all in their extended glory alongside dance-floor gold from Carly Simon, Rockers Revenge feat. Donnie Calvin, Kool & The Gang and Shalamar with the 12' mix of the peerless 'A Night to Remember'. The Final LP collects 10 of 1982's premier pop moments in their 12-inch versions: ABC lead with 'The Look of Love, Pt. 1 (Special Remix)', followed by smashes from Bananarama, Bow Wow Wow, Altered Images and Bucks Fizz... and flip the LP over for Tears for Fears with the long version of 'Pale Shelter', Blancmange with 'Living On the Ceiling', The Associates, a second track and harder-to-find dance mix from Visage, and signing off with 'Reap the Wild Wind' in its extended version from Ultravox.
