Notes

Columbia House (CRC) edition.

Title is given on disc simply as "Greatest Hits".

All tracks are in true stereo with the exception of "Sound Asleep" (mono), "She's My Girl" (fake stereo) and "You Don't Have To Walk In the Rain" (very narrow, near-mono). The latter two are 80s remixes done for the Rhino releases of Chalon Road and Turtle Soup respectively.

Both "She's My Girl" and "Elenore" have a reverb blast at the beginning (although it is a subtle one on the latter track.)

For anyone trying to make sense of the various releases of this title and likely pressing dates, I purchased this disc new from Columbia House, circa 2000.As you can see in the scans, they were still using the old artwork without the 'R2' catalog number for the club editions.
