See Phil Collins was the very first track on the very first album :)
I'm currently in the process of trying to get all the Now CD's and getting them dead cheap. So far I have got down to Now 21 and apart from the original purchases that I made over a period of time (Now 34 onwards) I've managed to spend no more than a fiver on ebay per CD. Bargain!

Trouble is, it's from now it gets expensive. From 11-20, I'm looking to pay a minimum of £10 per auction on Ebay. Now 9-10 can get upto £60 (minimum) per auction. It was from Now 9 when the CD was massed produced. Now 8 goes on an average nearer to the £100 mark.

Now 4 was the test in the market for CD's and it's this CD that regularly goes for a minimum of £300 per auction on Ebay. There was no Now CD's made between 5-7 and it's only on tape where every Now has been made for. Vinyl stopped at Now 35.

Anyhow back to old logos... Do you remember when it was late 1989 and every was beginning to be obessed with 1990 with companies/tv shows ending titles with "...90" This even went to the TVam show, Wac 90!"
God I must check out which Now albums I have on CD - I know I have loads of older ones somewhere.... got to be some advantages to being old

The Leyland Logo I meant was indeed the L in a circle logo which was seen on a majority of London Buses until about 2001/2

Could be but it would certainly be quite a bit of a rip-off of the BBC's Gill Sans letters in boxes logo.
