Packaging: Standard jewel case with a clear tray and a leaflet double-parallel folded forming four panels. The lyrics of Track 1 are printed across pages 5 and 6.

NB. There is a six digit alpha numeric code printed in the matrix/runout which starts with a 'P'. Because this code is positioned below a moulded curve in the plastic the bottom half is distorted and some of the numbers are indecipherable. This release is almost identical to Don McLean - American Pie - The Greatest Hits except this release is pressed by Regency Media and was issued (according to its position in the Regency Media database listing) in approximately 2008. However, I can't confirm this date.
