Tracks list

Now That’s What I Call Music have revived the NOW Dance brand for a new
compilation of classic 12-inch mixes from the 1980s called, simply, NOW Dance:
The 80s.

The first NOW Dance was released in 1985 (on 2LP and double cassette) and two
further volumes were issued in 1986 and 1989. This new compilation –
available as a 4CD set or 3LP red vinyl – features tracks that appears on
the three original compilations, all in their 12-inch or remixed versions.

If you are familiar with the originals, then the track listing, especially of CD
1, will look pleasingly familiar, starting with John ‘Tokes’
Potoker’s 12-inch version of Philip Bailey and Phil Collins’ UK
number one ‘Easy Lover’ before moving on to The Power
Station’s ‘Some Like It Hot’, Eurythmics’ Would I Lie
To You? (the ET Mix which, remarkably, has never been officially issued on CD),
Stephen ‘Tin Tin’ Duffy’s ‘Kiss Me’ and Belouis
‘don’t call-me-a-one-hit-wonder’ Some’s excellent
‘Imagination’ (the one with that saucy video).
And so it continues, with three further CDs of remixed pop and club hits
including the Special Club Mix of ‘Solid’ from Ashford & Simpson,
the Remix of Grace Jones’ ‘Pull Up To The Bumper’, Joyce
Sims’ (RIP) ‘(You Are My) All and All’, The David Z
12″ Version of Fine Young Cannibals’ ‘You Drive Me
Crazy’ and many more. Of course the deeper into it the nearer you get to
the end of the 1980s and so there’s the 12″ mixes of Neneh
Cherry’s ‘Buffalo Stance’ and Paula Abdul’s
‘Straight Up’, the Extended Mix of Bobby Brown’s ‘My
Prerogative’ and the Full Length Disco Mix of Coldcut feat. Lisa
Stansfield’s ‘People Hold On’.

The 4CD edition of NOW Dance: The 80s contains 48 remixes, while the limited
edition 3LP edition (pressed on red vinyl) offers 26. It’s the Eighties
so of course the remixes are all good-to-great and they ‘respect’
the song in the way that those Trouser Enthusiasts of the 1990s didn’t.
