I just realized that there are two songs, although different genres of  
music, that are similar in structure and in how they were re-issued for 
greatest  
hits compilations. I'm comparing The Dillards' 'She Sang Hymns Out of Tune' 
with  KISS' 'Detroit Rock City.' Both songs begin with a radio news broadcast 
by 
a  member of their respective bands, Mitch Jayne and Gene Simmons. Both,  
ironically, are also the bass players.
When 'She Sang Hymns Out of Tune' was compiled for The Dillards 'There is a  
Time (1963-1970), the radio preamble was omitted. This was also the case for  
the "news broadcast" in 'Detroit Rock City' when 'Double Platinum' was  
released in 1978.
 
Curious. Curious.
