1.0 out of 5 stars Most stupid release ever?, August 22, 2003
The #1Record/Radio City CD contains the same songs and many more in the correct running order. If there would be some lackluster songs on #1Record/Radio City, then maybe this CD would make at least a tiny bit of sense. But there aren't, as #1Record/Radio City is totally solid disc. This release is a mystery and a rip-off!
