UK first press 1988.
The rival to Now that was always just a bit more chaotic. Hits 9 is peak late-80s scattershot brilliance — Whitney Houston belting, Run-D.M.C. breaking through, Los Lobos doing La Bamba, and Heart going full power ballad. There's Level 42 slickness, Pet Shop Boys cool, and a late-side lurch into dad disco and soft rock just to keep you on your toes. Sequencing? Pure rollercoaster. But as a snapshot of 1987’s mainstream mayhem, it’s kind of perfect. FFO: Now That’s What I Call Music deep dives, VHS pop compilations, Friday night telly in ‘87, dancing to five genres at once
