Unidisc
NOTE: Unidisc reissues
have been released with a variety of different packaging / artwork changes.
Some appear to be old Aquarius
stock while others have received rather extensive overhaul - even extra tracks
in some cases.
The dates listed are mostly guesses
because the year of release isn't obvious on most of these CDs.

in except Canada, where "She's No Angel" was
included instead.
"Gimme Love" (Track 10)
Released as the B-side on the "She's No Angel"
single. The label on the B-side of the record doesn't mention that it's a

THE
BEST OF APRIL WINE ROCK BALLADS
(2009) Q2-56401
- Trifold digipak using the Aquarius catalog number.
- NOTE: The song list on the packaging
was taken from the Aquarius LP and does not match what is on the CD. There
are only 10 songs on this CD, not 12 like the packaging says. The songs are
exactly the same as the Aquarius release - "Come
Hear The Band" and "I'm On Fire For You Baby"
do not appear here, regardless of what it says.
THE
APRIL WINE COLLECTION
(2009) Q2-563
- 4 Disc Set (click for track list)
- Reissued by Unidisc with the original Aquarius catalog number
- Packaged in a 5-fold (pentafold?) digipak - 4 CD trays and one flap
for the booklet - which is overpacked in a sleeve with a textured front.
I prefer jewel cases to digipaks to begin with, and I find this 5 panel affair
to be clumsy and difficult to handle. I would have preferred individual CDs
in a decent outer box similar to the original release.
- Includes the BOOKLET
that was approved by Myles Goodwyn
- Includes extended version of I Like
To Rock (4:30)
POWER PLAY
(2009) Q2-48417
- No fancy digipaks this time - the nice artwork on the disc is the
only thing different from the Aquarius release.
ANIMAL
