About This Item
Limited hardback book packaging. Four CD set. 1984 was a truly incredible year in pop music, and we have included more than 140 tracks on the CDs of the 1984 Yearbook, the 80-84 Final Chapter, and their extras so far in our appreciation of the year... Those tracks were generally the bigger hits of the year, with their chart achievement a factor in their inclusion - however - that's not the whole singles story of the year, and our celebration of 1984 wouldn't be complete without shining a light on some of the years' singles that have been compiled much less frequently over the past 40 years. Welcome to THE VAULT for 1984... Some of the tracks included were Top 40 hits, some missed the chart completely. Some were representative of massive selling albums, and some were big hits in the U.S. and not in the U.K... but all are part of the wonderful pop story of 1984. Includes tracks by Heaven 17, ABC, Scritti Politti, Soft Cell, Bananarama, Level 42, Kim Wilde, Marilyn, Nena, Fiction Factory, A Flock Of Seagulls, Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, Blancmange, Sheila E., Shannon, Shalamar, Marillion, Twisted Sister, Judas Priest, Scorpions, Meat Loaf, Cocteau Twins, Siouxsie And The Banshees, Malcolm McLaren, Sparks, Aztec Camera, Tom Robinson, XTC, The Stranglers, Public Image Limited, The Boomtown Rats, Spear Of Destiny, The Sisters Of Mercy, Corey Hart, The Fixx, Go-Go's, The Cars, and many others. 80 tracks total.
