What's interesting is that before KISS re-united for their six-year-long
final tour in the late '90s. there was only "Double Platinum" and three
"Alive" releases. With the release of the double CD set called "Gold" at
Xmas, there are now 8 Kiss "best of" packages on CD...at least what I've
seen.
However, I think in its heyday the Guess Who may have the record for
re-packages because after every three records RCA would issue another volume
of 'hits'....competing alongside the original 1960's Bachman owned Guess Who
albums from the Quality Records years...which would also be repackaged and
sold as compilation material. That was 10 years worth of studio albums with
five 'best of' packages and the early years compilations.
