Was listening to one of our local radio stations today CFM (at least, I think that's what it's called, OH was driving so his choice, when I drive, it's radio 2.) Anyway, they were running a competition of some kind and Now 70 was the prize. I remember thinking to myself "why" there are only about 6 tracks on a whole CD that I'd want to listen to - but I admit to being, these days, a wrinkly old rocker!

Now who remembers even further back, the Top of the Pops vinyl records when the songs weren`t sung by the true people, but it was all you could afford!.

My OH has collected every single one of them!Apparantly they started out on vinyl in 1984 and changed to the CD version n 1986. The Now 8 9 and 10 are valued at aprox £40 each these days and are quite hard to come by.
