There are three known variants of this CD:
The Rock 'N' Roll Era 1958 (US 1987) (opens in a new tab) is likely the original pressing from 1987, with an "RE-1" in the matrix number. (There are no known variants of this CD that lack the RE- designation.) The RE-1 release has 23 tracks, including "To Know Him, Is To Love Him".
The Rock 'N' Roll Era 1958 (US 1992) (opens in a new tab) is a 1992 reissue with "RE-2" in the matrix number. The RE-2 reissue has only 22 tracks, omitting "To Know Him, Is To Love Him" and reordering the remaining tracks. The RE-2 reissue features drastically improved sound on nearly all tracks, likely from lower-generation source tapes.
Is a 1993 pressing on the JCI label. The JCI reissue has the same 22 tracks, in the same order and with the same mastering, as the RE-2 reissue. The JCI artwork includes an additional catalog number of JCI-1058 at the bottom of the rear artwork, in the credits on the last page of the booklet, and at the 3-o'clock position on the CD.
