Pictures: 40 Years of Hits (4-CD 'earBOOK' release)

~ Release by Status Quo (see all versions of this release, 4 available)

Annotation

The 4-CD 'earBOOK' release, as described under
http://www.earbooks.net/index.php?id=73&L=1
and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pictures_%E2%80%93_40_Years_of_Hits
and
http://www.allmusic.com/album/pictures-40-years-of-hits-2cd-dvd-mw0000811875

Unfortunately, there seems to be a disagreement between Wikipedia's and AllMusic's track listing. Since I'm (unfortunately) not one of the happy owners of the earBOOK release, someone who owns it might please cross-check. Thanks!

earBOOK's sales sheet (PDF) shows the track listing (and EAN) I used: http://www.earbooks.net/fileadmin/filepool/presspages/status_quo/Status%20Quo%20PICTURES%20sales%20sheet.pdf
