Releases: NOW Yearbook Vault ’82 – 4CD/3LP
NOW Music have confirmed a new Yearbook release, Vault ’82, focusing on tracks from 1982.
NOW Yearbook Vault ’82 will be released on 16th January 2026.
The Vault brand celebrates lesser known singles that weren’t huge chart hits, sometimes not hits at all, or maybe more successful in the US than in the UK.
Toyah’s Ieya ’82 is included on CD2 of the release. Other artists include: The Cure, Kim Wilde, Bananarama, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Culture Club, Funboy Three, Visage, The Go-Go’s and many more. The formats of Vault ’82 are 4CD deluxe with hardcover book and 28 page booklet, 3LP coloured (yellow) vinyl and standard 4CD in a card sleeve.
NOW Music say: 1982 was a stellar year in pop music. We have already included more than 150 tracks on the CDs of the 1982 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 1982 wouldn’t be complete without shining a light on some of that year’s singles that have been compiled much less frequently over the past 40 years.
Welcome to THE VAULT for 1982. 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 1982.
