As with most releases from the 60s and 70s, there is some confusion over what was actually issued with this set. *There are two main UK releases, one with nine LPs in stereo, and another with ten LPs in mono. The tenth LP in the set was taken from the two LP bonus set "Broadway Hit Parade", but the other album in the double set "Worldwide Movie And TV Hits" also appeared with the stereo set as a single bonus LP. There also exists several combinations of these releases as RD attempted to see which would sell best. including a ten LP stereo set. The full track list (including the bonus albums) are listed below.
