I just picked up yet another Eddie Money best of.
This one is called "Playlist" The Very Best of Eddie Money.
It contains 14 of his hits and it indeed includes the long sought after 45 version of "Two Tickets To Paradise".
Its released via sony legacy.
Unfortunately, its packaged in the lousy "eco-friendly" cardboard. (created by Al Gore?)
There are quiet a few in the series.
the way it was heard on the radio

EXCELLENT news!

Did you purchase it online, because everyone I've seen indicates out of stock.

That's great news, bwolfe! However, is the sound quality the usual loud, maximized, and overcompressed "remastering" found on most CDs these days?

And, for what it's worth, I absolutely despise the cheap, flimsy "eco-friendly" cardboard sleeves in which a growing number of CDs are packaged these days. Not only is the cardboard prone to rips, tears, dogears, gouges, etc., but the CD itself becomes FAR more vulnerable to scratches and fingerprints due to the awkward handling required to slide the disc in and out of the sleeve. (In the process, scratches form over time on the CD surface due to it rubbing against the cardboard.) I refuse to buy an "eco-friendly" packaged CD unless it contains a track I absolutely cannot find anywhere else.

Decided to take a late night stroll to one of the 24 hour Wal-Marts in my area. They had some of the Playlist: CD's on sale for 6.99 or so. But, as luck would have it, no Eddie Money.

So, I went to 2 more of the 24 hour Wal-Marts. One of them had none in the series, the other had only 5 or 6, but no Eddie Money.

Will try the one around the corner from me in the morning, as that one is only open 7am-11pm. Smaller store.

The first round of the "Playlist" series was released back on April 29th with mostly country artists.

This latest round, including the Eddie Money, was released on June 17th.

It is quite a nice list of artists available. I also saw one from Korn, Quiet Riot and a couple others not on the previous list.

Paul, the reason I had mentioned July 8th, that was a date I'd seen as a release date at several online retailers as I searched for Eddie Money.

Ed, you may want to try deepdiscount.com

I've had pretty good luck with them when others seem to be backordered or out of stock on certain items.
