Godley & Creme – The History Mix Volume 1 (LP, Album, Stereo, PRC Richmond Pressing, 1985, Polydor 825 981-1)

Why This Record Matters
Released in 1985, The History Mix Volume 1 is one of Godley & Creme's most ambitious projects, blending innovative sampling, remix techniques, and music video artistry into a seamless audio collage. The album revisits the duo's work with 10cc while featuring the international hit "Cry," making it a unique snapshot of mid-1980s studio experimentation.
