Now That's What I Call Music (Nostalgia)

That’s quite dark! I can’t remember any before.
Hot to go??? Where is Good luck baby? WHERE?
NOW 25 is the only one I recall that used black lettering and numbers:

Surprised there's no Guess on Now 119.
Charli is probably more expensive to license now she’s huge, guess was a number 1 hit so if it does appear on a NOW it’ll probably be 120, only 360 had appeared on a NOW from the Brat era, not even Von Dutch which would’ve been perfect for 117.
 
Still no news about a NOW 19 reissue? Is that it then? Project quietly abandoned?

Pity they didn't finish at Now 20 but I stopped buying them after Now 9 anyway. I would imagine the sales were starting to drop now we'd got into the 90s, though Now 19 is comparatively rare still? Perhaps there was one too many songs unable to be licenced this time? It was starting to get a bit silly.
 
If it were re-released they’d all complain that it’s missing tracks, it’s got the wrong edits, and the cover is a different shade of yellow.

Perhaps they heard all the complaints and decided not to carry on. Fair play to them.
 
I'm disappointed if they have stopped the retro NOW reissues. I stopped buying them in the early 90s and had planned to collect them all the way through to 2005 when I lost interest in the charts. I've enjoyed collecting these reissues and am glad we got all of the 80s at least as I bought them on cassette at the time.

I love owning these two beauties and my favourite volumes/artwork on CD at last!

Simple yet gorgeous art design back in the 80s.

Now it’s that stupid CGI logo in different colors.
 
Seems the original fatbox NOW 19s go for around £40 these days so it looks like I'll be waiting a while to get one. I used to pay no more than around £5 for fatbox NOWs on eBay 15 years ago - including p&p!
Wow, yeah a decade ago the high teen NOWs and early 20s fatboxes were still cheap. Got mine for £2-3.

If so, I'm sad that people aren't getting one of these reissues for 19.
