A lot of people here in the U.S. don’t realize it, but the NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL MUSIC! series of compilations began overseas in the early 1980s and didn’t surface here until 1998 with Volume 1 of the U.S. editions. It’s actually one of my “I feel old” moments, but I was actually peddling music for much of the time between ’98-2004, and personally set displays for many NOW! titles up to Volume 16. Tonight comes news that NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL MUSIC! Volume 53 is on the way, alongside a new title, NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL MOVIES! Both will be available as physical CDs and digital downloads on February 3, 2015 as part of a joint venture between Universal and Sony.  Check out the tracklistings for both albums, right here on THE ROCK FATHER…
