The Now Yearbook series also releases a vinyl selection of its primary release, with an Extra round-up vinyl boxset featuring tracks from the CD-only series, released at the end of 2022. They all vary from one to five disc compilations (occasionally six disc), starting in 1986 and continuing to the present day (Jan 2023).

This is no exception as this has plenty of hits that have reached the higher end of the charts in recent months. The presentation of each release has evolved notably over time: from 1986 through to 2013, all double and triple CD sets were released in chubby Jewel cases which could hold up to 6 discs. A standard 4-CD version is also issued in a gatefold "wallet" design, which retails cheaper than the mini-hardback books. The frequency in which they were released also varied from year to year; initially, and most frequently across the series, there would be one Now Dance volume per year, but in 1994 for example, there were four volumes released, and in 1996, there weren't any Now Dance compilations released. Every song has peaked within the top 20 (just like Now 84) and despite the fact it doesn't have the current No.The previous release in the series, Now 84, is currently the biggest selling album of 2013 so far, with sales of more than 658,000 copies! Stooshe - Slip - Same for this song, it charted a lot higher than previous single 'waterfalls' which was included on Now 83, and all their other songs have appeared on NOW albums. The series is then moved forward again, with the release of Now Yearbook 1992 in July 2023 (an Extra followed in August). Ed Sheeran - Everything Has Changed - The fact her previous single '22' was included is a bit of an indication that this song will be saved for Now 86.

Usually I'll check out the albums associated with the artist but most of them aren't as good as their reigning single. the Sunday one day before the release date in the UK on the latest album, looks like it will again have to settle for a place on Now 86.

Some of them have unique track listings and are not related to similarly themed collections already issued on compact disc, however, more recent releases have been 'selections' taken from a larger CD collection (Rock, for example).

Arctic Monkeys - Do I Wanna Know - I have never known the Arctic Monkeys to appear on a NOW album, so I just knew this song wasn't going to be on this one. Tracks with an asterisk (*) next to their title have also been included in special releases from the series.
