I purchased this CD because I saw that it had YOU GOT IT, Roy's late '80s comeback hit, packaged together with the older classics. This CD turned out to be a total disaster. All the tracks are non-original versions, either terrible remixes or live versions (of course the record company fails to mention this anywhere on the packaging). The new versions included here are aweful. They sound nothing like the original (familiar) versions, and instead like they were recorded on a karaoke machine or else by some terrible second-rate wedding band. Avoid at all costs!
