Academy were a surprisingly little known UK band who released 6 singles between 1984 and 1986 on RCA records. It's hard to believe there was a time when a major label would release six singles and no album, but it seemed to happen all the time in the early 80's. This collection compiles all their b-sides and remixes alongside all the A-sides. Here are some of the collection's highlights.
