That's the track listing for the Unidisc CD from 1988. (SPLK2-8000) It was mastered from vinyl, with the high-end jacked-up to sound like a digital recording. YIKES!
If that's what's being sold, either the seller's delusional, or the buyer's an idiot.

I knew it went for big bucks but that's crazy. These "it HAS to be CD; I'm allergic to vinyl" people need some re-education, methinks...

If that sells...I might just have to burn me a copy and sell my original!

Hiya Punkin'! xoxo
Did ya miss me? I took 4th place in my contest! :o)

There is no big deal about the Unidisc CD. Other than, it's the only legitimate Greatest Hits CD compilation made. It's a cheap mastered CD. Done from vinyl. "Accidental Lover" fades out at about 9 minutes. You could (and I have) burn a better compilation on your own computer. That's why the price is so rediculous.

There was a legitimate Greatest Hits LP, from Italy, around 1980(?) I think Derby Records put it out. But it's a strange grouping of single mixes on the A side, and the full-length "How Much, How Much I Love You", and one other single, on the B side. Even I didn't buy it.
