Various Artists - Now - Yearbook 1992 - [Vinyl]

NOW Music is proud to present the next instalment in our ongoing �Yearbook� series - and our first to celebrate the �90s, NOW - Yearbook 1992; 43 tracks from a brilliant year in Pop! - on a 3-LP set pressed on green vinyl. George Michael�s Dance classic �Too Funky� - from the �Red Hot & Dance� project - opens the first side, followed by #1 �Ebeneezer Goode� from The Shamen and The Perfecto remix of U2�s �Even Better Than The Real Thing�. Timeless tracks from Annie Lennox and Richard Marx follow with Bon Jovi�s �Keep The Faith� closing Side One. The KLF�s final single �America: What Time Is Love?� opens Side Two, which includes The Cure�s �Friday I�m In Love�, Electronic�s �Disappointed�, Marc Almond, Boy George - and the beautiful and sophisticated ballad �The One�, from Elton John. 1992 saw Bruce Springsteen release two new albums, �Human Touch� and �Lucky Town� on the same day, and the title track from the former kicks off LP2 - followed by playlist classics from Sophie B. Hawkins and the collaboration between Patty Smyth and Don Henley. �Alternative� Pop from Manic Street Preachers, Simple Minds, Paul Weller and Tears For Fears complete side one - whilst the flip side salutes the dancefloor: Dance-Pop filled the charts in 1992, and this side explodes into action with worldwide hits �Rhythm Is A Dancer� from SNAP!, �It�s My Life� from Dr. Alban and Charles & Eddie�s #1 �Would I Lie To You?�. Floor-fillers from CeCe Peniston, Dina Carroll, Shanice and En Vogue follow, before �My Destiny� from Lionel Richie completes the disc. The longest-running #1 of the year - with 8 weeks at the top - �Stay� from Shakespears Sister, opens the final LP, before another #1 from Tasmin Archer - plus �Crucify� from Tori Amos, and �Weather With You� from Crowded House. The side is completed with stellar vocals from Simply Red and Lisa Stansfield, and the final side presents a fabulous run of Pop gems: kicking off with Jimmy Nail�s #1 �Ain�t No Doubt� and including Take That, Kylie Minogue, Roxette and Go West - before closing with three of the year�s biggest - and timeless - ballads: Wet Wet Wet enjoyed a #1 with �Goodnight Girl�, and Vanessa Williams had a huge global hit with �Save The Best For Last�. But the final track on this �Yearbook� is 1992�s biggest seller in both the UK and the US: �I Will Always Love You� from Whitney Houston. Yearbook 1992 - A celebration of the diversity and wonderful creativity of the year in Pop.
