Various Artists - Now That`s What I Call the 80s: Vol. 2 [6/30]

Artist:

Various Artists

Description:

How could one volume do justice to the sparkling decade of excess? Answer: it can not, and hence this hit-packed second volume from the venerable NOW series, which gathers tracks by chart-busting artists in Sony`s mid-to-late-`80s roster. The songs recall the height of the MTV era. Whitney Houston`s "How Will I Know" is as exuberant and fresh as you remembered, and Robert Palmer`s smarmy appeal has lessened not a bit since the first airing of "Simply Irresistible." The Human League, the Police, Journey, and several others are also represented here.
