Official conformation of NOW 8 Double CD on the NOW Twitter feed- all tracks present, though perhaps not the correct mixes, Lot's of additional text added - "Single Mix" "Single Version" "Feat. Aerosmith" "Remastered Version 2019" etc, etc. "32 Top Chart Hits" is lower down & "Plus Many More" is right after Kim Wilde" rather than below the artists names. The font is bugging me - it's not quite "right".
An ebay listing showing a March 26 release date has popped up- track listing is as the original LP & Cassette, unless the seller is guessing?
Simply put this feels like the longest record ever made
