First time sharing here. A Siouxie And The Banshees rarity for your collective enjoyment. Will be available for a limited time (til I need the room). I used to seek out these neglected promos when they were available at used disc stores. This seems a bit exclusive as it was created to promote the Batman movie at the time. I hope this link works. These are FLAC files and the cover art is included. I dont expect any infringement, as its obviously out of print. Cheers and thanks to all who have been pretty generous for my benefit.

Nice. Unfortunately, somehow during/after the rip, you converted these files to 24-bit, which only bloated the file size. CDs only contain 16-bit data; converting it to 24 doesn't improve on it; it just takes up more space.

I have another rip, but it is not verifying as error-free. I was hoping yours would be. Any chance of a 16/44.1 rip, perhaps made with XLD (Mac OS) or EAC, CUERipper, or dbPoweramp (Windows)? If not, no worries. It looks like if I down-convert it back to 16-bit, I get accurate audio for all except track 7, which is better than what I had from elsewhere. Thanks!

16 bit PCM- replaced the 24 bit. Better for everyone.

This is PR-CD-4345, which has 7 versions of the song. Six are remixed by Junior Vazquez! The commercial CD single only has 2 versions of the song (regular and Vertigo Mix). I'm happy to have this now.

Just an FYI, I don't think this was for the Batman movie, that was Face To Face.

Thanks for the rare promo upload!
