“The Apple Boogie”
8 JanIn 1987, Apple released its own music album: The Apple Boogie.
The tape, featuring 8 examples of upbeat 80′s goodness, was created to hand out at Apple sales conferences.
Lucky for us, The Apple Boogie was converted to MP3 over six years ago, in the age of dial-up, and uploaded to an Apple-centric website in South Africa. All eight tracks are listed, available for download, complete with covers and lyrics.
Bonus find: Apple’s old theme song “Apple.Power.Passion”
