Double Listing - Live In Europe

#6 & #14 are the same.

Data fixed, thanks

Double Listing - Immortal Otis Redding

I feel #8 & #15 (Amen) are the same based on time frame of 1968 and the fact the single "Amen" was first released on this 'Immortal Otis Redding' album (per Wikipedia).

Given the lack of any album called Amen this does look like a mistake in the source chart. Data fixed, thanks

Double Listing - The History Of ...

Based on time frame, I'm pretty sure #3 & #14 (The Otis Redding Story) are the same. Can find no record of an album titled The Otis Redding Story.

Data fixed, thanks

(2) Double Listings & (1) Triple Listing

#9 & #12 are the same (Live In Europe). #17 & #19 are the same (In Person At the Whisky A Go Go). And #2 & #3 & #4 are the same (under duets w/Jimi Hendrix - Monterey International Pop Festival).

All look good, data fixed, thanks
