During the escape sequence that features Yondu's stunning Yaka Arrow attack on Taserface's Ravagers, the captain asks Kraglin to set up some of Peter Quill's music for them to fight to (or just to annoy the Ravagers, more precisely).

It's a nice way to integrate more music into a big set-piece, but there's a pretty big problem with it. The song that plays "Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang" by Silver, was one of the songs on Awesome Mix Vol 2.

If they'd reused a song from the first Vol, it would have been fine, as the Ravagers could have copied Peter's tape digitally, but Pete didn't even open the present from his mother containing Vol 2 until after he'd run away from Yondu in the first movie. So they would never have even heard it, let alone been able to copy it.
