If you grew up in the 1980s huddled by your radio listening to the local college radio station – tune in, because we have something special for you.

You don’t have to be from the 80s (but it probably helps) to enjoy this musical treat: the June release of Scared To Get Happy – A Story of Indie-Pop 1980-1989.

This five-CD set includes 134 tracks and features music from all the key indie labels of the era. You’ll find music from Aztec Camera, Prefab Sprout, Del Amitri, James, the Jesus & Mary Chain, Primal Scream, the Soup Dragons, Pop Will Eat Itself, the Wonder Stuff, the Stone Roses, the Boo Radleys and many, many more.

Scared To Get Happy comes with a 54-page booklet, lengthy liner-notes and illustrations of the records and bands involved.

Scared To Get Happy – A Story of Indie-Pop 1980-1989 is out on June 24.
