REQ: Stephen Duffy - Baby Impossible (Olympic Mix)

While I would be the first to admit this may prove to be an exercise in futility, I was wondering if anyone has (or can direct me to) a high quality rip of this rarity:

https://www.discogs.com/release/1851222-Stephen-Duffy-Baby-Impossible

I have a barely listenable and muddy sounding copy of this track that I think I got from this forum many years ago (hey, at least it's in stereo). This particular 12" mix has a very unusual (and perhaps overly ambitious) dub sound that must sound fantastic in actuality. Thanks in advance...
