Academy Award-winning actor Lee Marvin and renowned director john Huston passed away in August. ln November, Chicago Mayor Harold Washington died sudden- ly of a heart attack. At the Movies Fatal Attraction proved to be the biggest-grossing movie of 1987. It had to- talled S110 million in box office receipts by mid-December and was still going strong by the end of the year. Many movie-goers left the theatres vowing to never cheat on their spouses. Music: Innovation and Sales Music consumers found two new items on the shelves in 1987, both aimed at replacing the seven-inch vinyl single. The cassingle, introduced in the summer, contains both sides of the vinyl single on one side of the cassingle, the same songs are repeated on the other side. Arriving at the stores on a limited basis in December was the compact disc single. Measuring only 2V2 inches across, the compact disc single contains more music than both the vinyl single and the cassingle for around the same price. 1987's biggest albums were quite a mixture of musical styles. The biggest selling album of the year was Bon jovi's Slippery When Wet, which has sold eight million copies so far in the United States. Oth- er top-selling albums of the year were Bad by Michael jackson, The joshua Tree by U25 and Whitney by Whitney Houston. World Series Action
