Still waiting for RT to do wrong. So far, they can do no wrong. This is new to me. Your compilation or a label release? Either way, thank you for this and all the rest.

Thanks for posting this. It is one of my favorite compilations of all-time. Many of the singles from which this was compiled were hard to find or unavailable in the States back in the day. I'm hoping we will see RT resissue this in 2021. Hard to believe it's been almost 40 years!
