Annotation

Series: Just The Hits #Power Ballads

Track 1-15 is incorrectly attributed to "Rob Stewart" instead of "Rod Stewart" (ANV used). Track 2-16 artist name is incorrectly split and printed as part of the song title on the rear cover ("Vinnie Vincent - Invasion Love Kills"; see rear cover image) but correctly shown within the insert - shown here as it should have been to allow attribution of correct song title.
