From Blabbermouth.net: (This seems like a comp the band has nothing to do with-some albums are ignored such as Kiss Unmasked-where's "Shandi"? Nothing from "The Elder" or "Alive II". Maybe this is the 3 crappy Millenium collections in one package?) : According to a posting on the KISS fan site KissNews.de, a new three-CD KISS compilation called "Playlist Plus" will be released on April 29 via Universal.  The track listing for the collection is as follows: Disc 1: 01. Strutter 02. Deuce 03. Hotter Than Hell 04. C'mon and Love Me 05. Rock and Roll All Nite 06. Detroit Rock City 07. Beth 08.

All Hell's Breakin' Loose 05. Heaven's On Fire 06. Thrills In the Night 07. Tears Are Falling 08. Uh! All Night 09. Crazy Crazy Nights 10. Reason To Live 11. Hide Your Heart 12. Forever Disc 3: 01.

Another KISS compilation that a die-hard KISS fan doesn't need to buy. I think this will bring my grand total up to 5.
If you combined the tracks, this would probably fit on two CDs.

You wanted the expensive repackaging, you got the expensive repackaging! Kiss will release a new three-CD box set, Playlist Plus, on April 29.

Why? Cuz you people deserve to give yourself a round of applause! Would you like to know just how many times these songs have been featured on albums and compilations?

In all fairness to KISS, this most likely had nothing to do with them as did the last few comps, as they haven't been with Universal since 2001 or so. Not that Gene will mind $ome extra ca$h.

I can't imagine this "box set" moving a lot of units. This stuff has compiled and anthologized to death. I think the last comp they had any real involvement with was the real box set from 2001.

In fairness, from a business point of view, KISS is doing a tour in Europe and elsewhere overseas this year but god their fans tolerate a lot of abuse.

Since there doesn't seem to be much interest in the KISS comp, let's use this thread to cover all of Universal's [lilred]Playlist Plus[/lilred] 3-CD compilations which are coming out on Tuesday: The Allman Brothers Band James Brown Marvin Gaye B.B. King KISS Lynyrd Skynyrd The Moody Blues Rod Stewart The Supremes The Temptations Various Artists: Classic Rock Various Artists: Motown 50th Anniversary The Velvet UndergroundDoesn't seem to be anything included in the way of genuine rarities (although I think it's a nice touch that they included Hayward & Lodge's "Blue Guitar" on the Moodies' collection), but they supposedly contain all newly remastered tracks. Complete list of Playlist Plus 3-CD compilations

You are right, Jimbo. This collection is a very nice Moodies overview ... even has stuff from their Christmas album ... I'm kinda glad they didn't include "Go Now" (even though I love Denny Laine  ). That always ruins the flow of Moody Blues comps for me.

I must say, if it takes up the same space on the shelf, the Allman Brothers collection is a nice expansion of the "Stand Back" anthology, itself a fine collection. Disc 11. Don't Want You No More 2. It's Not My Cross To Bear 3. Black Hearted Woman 4. Trouble No More 5. Every Hungry Woman 6. Dreams 7. Revival 8. Don't Keep Me Wonderin' 9. Midnight Rider 10. Hoochie Coochie Man Disc 21. Statesboro Blues 2. Hot 'Lanta 3. In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed 4. Whipping Post 5. One Way Out 6. Ain't Wastin' Time No More 7. Melissa 8. Stand Back 9. Blue Sky 10. Little Martha Disc 31. Wasted Words 2. Ramblin' Man 3. Southbound 4. Jessica 5. Can't Lose What You Never Had 6. Win, Lose Or Draw 7. Crazy Love 8. Can't Take It With You 9. Pegasus 10. Just Ain't Easy http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0016CP2CM/?tag=imwan-20

Universal Music no longer does any classic rock archival material(I.E. previously unreleased tracks) for the North American market, leaving fans to seek out imports from England & Europe. This decision by Universal Music was probably a factor in the exit of their highly respected catalogue director Bill Levenson.

This Allman Bros. compilation is unnecessary...but then again, so are most of these.

Phil Cohen wrote: Universal Music no longer does any classic rock archival material(I.E. previously unreleased tracks) for the North American market, leaving fans to seek out imports from England & Europe. This decision by Universal Music was probably a factor in the exit of their highly respected catalogue director Bill Levenson. It's Universal's loss as far as I'm concerned. Bill did some great work for that company.

Let's hope Hip-O Select continues to flourish as an exception to this Universal Music rule; their exemplary work is showing up anyhow in the remaining US brick-and-mortar shops (Virgin Megastores, Amoeba, indie stores, etc.) I suppose this rule isn't iron-clad, though, given the recent Elvis Costello reissues. Still, I wonder if the Elton John deluxe editions will be forthcoming in US editions.

I think the Supremes are starting to compete with The Who, Lynyrd Skynyrd & our all time favs, The Doors for most overly comp'd group.

Get Rhino to knock on Greg Allmans door. I have been impressed with the out-takes Rhino have done.
I read that next year is the 40th Anniversary of The A.B.B
Wonder if this will result in some rarities ?

Just Ain't Easy http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0016CP2CM/?tag=imwan-20All or most of these tracks have appeared on the two disc compilation The Road Goes On Forever, now out of print, and re-released as Gold. This Allman Bros. compilation is unnecessary...but then again, so are most of these. Right you are. This collection is a TOTAL RIP-OFF. I bought it yesterday without doing my homework. It costs nearly $30 and contains thirty songs (on three CDs) - all from the brilliant early era and the mediocre mid-to-late '70s era. There are no liner notes and the packaging is minimal and generic at best. The "remastering," if there really is any, consists of compression to make the sound louder and punchier. By contrast the "Stand Back" anthology consists of TWO discs containing 32 songs including several gems from the Arista and Epic eras as well as a song from "Hittin' The Note" and ample liner notes and packaging. You DO get three songs from the first two albums which haven't been issued on a collection to my knowledge (who can keep track) on Playlist Plus but you'd be better off simply buying the first two albums (the first great, the second a masterpiece) which were reissued in remastered form about ten years ago. Amazon has them for $8 each. So let's review: Playlist Plus collection; thirty songs on 3 CDs in a crappy "environmentally concious" paper package for $28 = BAD "Standback" Anthology: thirty-TWO songs on 2 CDs with quality packaging and liners for $14 = VERY MUCH BETTER. These kind of collections are typically designed for indifferent and ignorant buyers (which ticks ME off all the more because I DID buy it) to give as Christmas presents. "Wow! Three CDs for less $30! Ahyuk, ahyuk.." Caveat Emptor.

Except for The Doors, those artists all fall under the Universal umbrella. While most of the major labels have compilation series, at Universal it seems they start a new one every time the weather changes. Was it all that long ago that they started releasing the two-disc "Gold" compilations? Of course this time they had to get the word "playlist" in the title to appeal to the IPoders. Whatever...

I actually like several of the comps in the 2 cd Gold series, & BMG club prices them as low as $6 delivered if I wait for the right sale.
