Patybear, if you buy a CD for Wreck, you should probably buy either Summertime Dream or Complete Greatest Hits. Both of those CDs have the original recording. The version on GG2 is a rerecording, from 1988. It's good too, but it isn't the original recording - the one people know from the radio (and the one with Pee Wee Charles' incomparable pedal steel). So, to please "B.F." who probably knows the song from the original version, you should go for a CD with that recording.

Personally, I'd recommend Complete Greatest Hits because it samples his entire career, has great songs, and was remastered by Bill Inglot, one of the best in the business.
