| Release Details: | MCA CD details from online
stores/guides. BGO catalogue number from my CD. Date on my CD is 1991, but various online sources quoted the BGO release as having a 1994 date, so I went with that, assuming it'd been reissued. Original issue catalogue number from Boogie Chillen book. Date of issue from BGO CD. |
