Wham! The Final: 25th Anniversary Edition. CD+DVD.

The 80s still reign as the most popular musical decade, everybody loves a bit of 80s nostalgia - and you can’t get more 80s than Wham!. George Michael and Andrew Ridgley defined the musical sound of the era with their hugely successful feel-good, pure pop sound. I n the space of 4 years they had 4 number 1s, made one of the best, most enduring Christmas songs of all time and no less than 10 Top 10 hits. First released in 1986 The Final collected together all the hits on one album (plus George’s first 2 solo number 1’s; Careless Whisper and A Different Corner). With its iconic Peter Savile designed front cover it spent no less than 47 weeks in the chart and was on every Christmas list in December ’86. Now, in celebration of its 25th Anniversary, Sony are taking it back to the top. The existing CD is being given a striking new ‘mirrorboard’ slipcase. In addition there is a second format with a DVD of 13 promo videos from tracks off the album.
