I've added the Advert in "Blues & Soul" 966 (Mar 15th 2006) - image #1640945. Although B&S was a UK magazine I'm assuming that it referred to this release and that Rhino had had a limited number of this CD sent to the UK for "release" there.
Most of the tracks on this collection had appeared on a French CD called "Souvenirs" six years previously, the exceptions being Tracks 13-16, "Waiting For Tomorrow", "Livin' Life On A Shoestring" and the Mono single versions of "Your Turn To Cry" and "Soul Tambourine ".

According to the Advert in "Blues & Soul" 957 (Nov 8th 2005) - Image #1638830 - this was released on 7th October 2005 .... However, I suspect that to be a typo that should read 7th November 2005 so I've updated the issue date of this to that.
Added image #1638828 - the Advert in "Blues & Soul" 957 (Nov 8th 2005). This must be the "Limited Edition Double CD" mentioned in the ad, so I've updated the issue date of this to fit in with the advert, but which of the two "European" versions currently on here is the "standard" CD? Or could it be both?
