Everything Is Now - Vol 1: The Early Years 1978-1982

Journeys to Glory is the 1981 debut album from Spandau Ballet. The band had spent two years immersed in the New Romantic era, performing twice at the home of the scene, the Blitz Club. The album peaked at #5 in the UK and in the top 20 in Australia and New Zealand. Since its release, it has been certified gold in the UK.

Their second album, Diamond, was released in 1982 and a reflection of both the rapidly changing sounds and styles of the London night club scene that Spandau were representing at the time. It hit the charts across the world including the UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Sweden. Diamond has also been certified gold in the UK.
