I was looking forward to Track 4, "Abergavenny" by Shannon. Instead, this CD appears to contain the version by Marty Wilde! A lovely version, but not the one advertised on the label and on the Amazon product listing.

There seem to be two versions of the cover art, also adding to the confusion.

3.0 out of 5 stars Confusion Shannon, July 18, 2011

Shannon IS Marty Wilde. In Britan and Australia "Abergavenny" was labeled as Marty Wilde, however, the same song was released by Wilde in the USA under the pseudonym Shannon - Not to be confused with the Shannon that had the Billboard 1984 hit "Let The Music Play". This was a female artist, real name Brenda Shannon Greene.
Marty Wilde, real name Reginald Smith, used the Shannon pseudonym in August 1969 in the USA for the release of "Abergavenny".
Hope this clear up any confusion.
Cheers.
