“1984 Top 40 Medley” is a nearly fifteen-minute medley released by Hot Tracks Remix Service in 1985 for Series 4, Issue 1 it features some of the hottest tracks from one of the best years in pop music 1984.

The medley is another well-crafted mix by the same remix trio who brought us the “Octomnipent Zeitgeist Medley (Part I & II)” which I posted back in March 2021. The trio consists of Glenn Cattanach, Greg Lee, and Jeff McKeehan. In addition, this was the first medley that the trio worked on for Hot Tracks.
