An interesting detour for the Now franchise but as per usual it’s a tracklist you could compile yourself. There is such a wealth of material to choose from in the punk/post-punk years, it’s just a shame compilers can’t see beyond the obvious. I mean if Music Twitter/BlueSky can do it.. 😉 - ThreadSky

First appearance by The Durutti Column on a NOW compilation.

Otherwise... Meh.

They aren’t on it (well not the Now comp but they are on the Music Twitter playlists pictured).

Oh right, I misunderstood... I did think the track listing was a mix of the blindingly obvious and wtf - "Gathering dust"? Durutti? I wouldn't have turned it off but I might have skipped a few.

They were all chosen from the votes cast in a month long Twitter music challenge so there are some obvious ones but a few surprises too.
