It's a selection that covers those early days when the Fun Boy Three first introduced pop fans to the original line-up of Keren Woodward, Sara Dallin and Siobhan Fahey.
It also features their Stock, Aitken and Waterman years as well as the end of the 1980s when Siobhan left for new ventures and was replaced by Jacquie O'Sullivan.
