Now 121 will be released later this week.

Thought I’d also post this in here and it looks like 1976 is gonna be the next yearbook and it’s gonna be released on 29th August. If they wanted to go to the second half of the 70s, they should’ve gone with 1975 for the 50th anniversary but I’d rather they went to the first half of the 70s. I also hope that 1976 is anything but purple, more preferably yellow https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FHZN2674

Just FYI - threads don't need to be locked at 50 pages nowadays!

They usually take it down but it should be back up on Thursday

Oh nice, although a 1976 Yearbook with no Dancing Queen is as pointless as pointless gets really isn't it.

(Unless they managed to wrangle back the ABBA license).

But can’t see the tracklist clearly. Surprised they went with green when 1974 is green. Should’ve gone with yellow. I expect 1975 to be yellow and 1972 to be purple

First three tracks are Queen - Somebody To Love, ELO - Livin' Thing and Fleetwood Mac - Say You Love Me. Nice that they've got the latter on here although it's very revisionist to put a No.40 hit in third.

Tracklist is up on this site:

Nice album but so sad that they can't get ABBA now.

I reckon that every 1976 song that appeared on Now 70s 2025 and Now Massive 70s Party made the 1976 yearbook with none of them missing out

Great tracklist and never mind about Abba. Just play Abba Gold. No idea why Marvin Gaye is there as it was never a UK hit. Maybe re-issued in .76.
