25 Years of Back In Time
A few days ago we passed an important anniversary: it has been 25 years ago that Back In Time
was published by Chris Abbott, the first Commodore-64 remix album which was followed by several more in the series, and eventually spawned even live concerts and BIT Live parties, not to mention the most recent 8-Bit Symphony
album where SID tunes were played by an actual, real symphonic orchestra. They can all trace their origins back to this little album that sold over 2500 copies - and what a journey it has been over those 25 years! So, please, take a moment to reflect on this momentous occasion and join us in congratulating Back In Time
on its 25th anniversary!
