Cruisin’ Greats, Volume 3

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

very similar to this other Cruisin’ Greats, Volume 3 => https://www.discogs.com/release/12536631 with same front cover art, label, cat#, barcode - but for tracks 6, 16, 20, 22, and 25
yet another at https://www.musik-sammler.de/media/172093/ with same front cover art, label, cat#, barcode - but for tracks 6, 10, 14, 16, 20, 22, 24, and 25

appears to be part of a 4cd boxset titled 100 Cruisin’ Greats with each of the four cds containing 25 tracks:
Cruisin’ Greats, Volume 1 (or 100 Cruisin’ Greats) - VAR089, 5020214208929
Cruisin’ Greats, Volume 2 - VAR090, 5020214209025
Cruisin’ Greats, Volume 3 - VAR091, 5020214209124
Cruisin’ Greats, Volume 4 - VAR092, 5020214209223

i also found at least three versions of this boxset (2 at discogs, and another at musik-sammler.de, showing Volume 1), with a few differences in the tracklist of each cd from the set, but the tracklists/releases are on the whole the same, not least due to their common cover art.

this seems to be a match to https://www.discogs.com/release/12663992, except for the a/m track differences, though that could be attributed to the fact that that discogs entry was simply cloned w/o any further edits from https://www.discogs.com/release/9435780 (which has different label, cat, and barcode data) - as the edit history shows.
