Thanks for this AotW link! I picked up one of these. There are only 6 Foursider tracks on 'Best of' which I do have already, but the only other BMB I have on physical format is Do You Know The Way to San Jose which has some great deep cuts AND it's my favorite BMB album cover which is a nice bonus. Anywho, Foursider only has one track from DYKTWTSJ - Sunrise, Sunset, and that is already on 'Best Of' so this is a great addition for me.

Congratulations on your acquisition those deep cuts are really standouts in my opinion I recommend you try to get as much of the BMB as you can my first BMB album was Greatest hits which has tracks not featured on Foursider or the best of and the first BMB album has even more Enjoy my friend
 
And here's my CD artwork for the Wechter/Baja FOURSIDER:

Since the LP package lists the eighth track as "Brasilia", but the actual vinyl plays "Summer Samba", I've included both tracks on my CD.
 
I think this is the only Baja compilaton that starts and ends with the correct tracks as the gods of music intended.
Mike my friend you got me singing 'Twenty six miles across the sea" ( in a Spanish BMB accent even HaHa.) But you are correct starting with "Coming in the Back door" and Ending with "Goin out the Side Door" is perfect for this compilation
