Now That's What I Call Music XIII (UK Series)

Now That's What I Call Music XIII or Now 13 was released in 1988. The album is the 13th edition of the (UK) Now! series and one of only two editions to use Roman numerals in the title as opposed to numbers (Now 2 was also released as numerals). It was released on vinyl, audio cassette & CD formats. It reached number 1 on the UK Albums Chart for four weeks. This would be the last compilation album to be number 1 on the chart, as the UK Compilation Chart was created in January 1989 due to the dominance of compilations in the albums chart over the previous few years, and subsequent Now! albums would chart there instead.

Now 13 features three songs which reached number one on the UK Singles Chart: "The Only Way Is Up", "A Groovy Kind of Love" and "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother".

    —J.G. (John Gabriel)

    “The harp that once through Tara’s halls The soul of music shed, Now hangs as mute on Tara’s walls As if that soul were fled.”
