Rare CD! A compilation albums key selling point is its predictability. Most, for instance, are exclusive to an artist’s radio hits with a variety of fan favorites, concert staples and quality deep cuts added to round things out.
To generate further interest and increase sales, it is not uncommon for a couple of new songs to be included as well. Those in doubt need consider how one might predict the track-listing if Stryper were to release a new compilation: “Honestly” and “Always There For You” (radio hits), “To Hell With The Devil”, “In God We Trust” and “Soldiers Under Command” (fan favorites/concert staples) and “Lady” and “Free” (deep cuts). To understand my point, it must be noted how the previously referenced seven songs formed the backbone of the two Stryper compilations already released, Can’t Stop The Rock (1991) and 7 (2003). And if in case you were wondering, the former featured two new songs (“Believe” & “Can’t Stop The Rock”) and latter two others (“Something” & “For You”).
