Hm, I'm not sure about your single RG idea: the individual releases were
issued on different years. This would mean merging two separate RGs into
one which would contain the separately issued single disc releases and my
2-discs release. Unless someone can find an indication that the artist or
the editor thought from the beginning that the single releases were linked
together.
