Track 2 "Hot Rock" medley contains covers of famous songs by famous artists, but using chiptune renditions of course.
I've only identified a few, and wanted to see if anyone wants to help identify any more of them. 5:23~6:00 ? Petula Clark: A sign of the times ? 6:01~6:57 ?? 7:07~7:32 ?? 7:38~9:08 The Beatles: Twist and Shout 9:10~10:23 ?? 10:25~10:44 Madonna: Like a Virgin 10:46~11:13 ?? 11:17~11:53 ?? similar to The Supremes: Baby Love but faster 11:54~12:55 ?? 12:57~13:11 Theme from ROCKY 13:12~13:21 ?? 13:22~13:38 Bruce Springsteen: Born in the USA 13:39~13:51 The Star Spangled Banner The original compositions are in the beginning of the medley, so I wonder which Kukeiha Club member wrote the tune for the "Egypt Underground" part, 1:10~2:10 as that's a brilliant piece of pop!! |

Actually, the famous songs are alternated with the original compositions. Thanks to two japanese websites, I could identify the famous tracks. The others are more bit difficult, though.

Good Info, thanks Revoc!
(and I totally forgot to look at the reprint for the breakdown, as I had even posted the tracklist for SCDC-00465 back in March, then forgot all about it that most of the info was right there... doh!) |

Nice attention to detail here. I'll update the album info with this, since no one else seems to have done it yet.

is it me or all the releases have a somewhat different tracklist?
Original CD has ten tracks '80s tape and vinyl have 8 tracks (they miss the Konami Morning Music and the MSX medley) Scitron CD reprints have 9 tracks (missing WEC Le mans 24)? |

Looking at the rear scans for all of them, you are indeed correct.
The reasons why would just be speculation though.... Perhaps the physical formats of the tape & vinyl format had a lower total running time compared to the CD format, forcing the cuts of those 2 segments. Perhaps there was a rights ownership or licensing issue on the CD reprint which forced a cut of WEC Lemans 24. And who knows what held up (and eventually cancelled) the first CD Reprint attempt, maybe it was this track which got cut in order to solve the problem...

The first reprint attempt was cancelled? I'll update SCDC-00064 to reflect that.

I believe it says Motoaki Furukawa composed the ending theme for King Kong 2 for the MSX, or at least that he thinks he may have. Dunno if that theme is on the album, but just FYI for anyone interested in clarifying this.

In the same interview linked above Motoaki Furukawa also mentions being the arranger & recorder of the Castlevania track on this album. 鴫原:コナミに入社して最初の配属部署、および初めてのお仕事は何だったのか教えてください(作曲以外のお 仕事も含む)。 古川:最初、MSXパソコン用ソフトの作曲部担当となりました。最初の仕事は「コナミック・ゲーム・フリー クス」に収録された、「悪魔城ドラキュラ」のメドレーアレンジとレコーディングだったのではないかと思いま す。 |

What a shame. Reprint the album and cut 10 minutes, whole game gone out of the window. Did they also cut out Hi no Tori? Just asking since they got rid of its screenshot at the back. The notes will need to be improved with the games included |

So I've been trying to track down which other tracks in Rock'n Rage are covers. The uploader on VGMRips who made the recent VGM pack was unable to find some of these. Even the tracklist on atwiki.jp is fairly incomplete!
A lot of tracklists for this game mention the Scorpions and Led Zeppelin, but not the actual song titles. I was able to find the Scorpions track along with another one, but I'd appreciate some help for Led Zeppelin and some of the remaining tracks as well.
Someone else also left a comment on another video and made the following claims:
