Coming out June 21st. Not much that you haven't seen before, but hopefully, "Some People" by Belouis Some is NOT the mastering mess that was included on the cherry red release:

For years, OMD's "Tesla Girls" extended version would not appear on any cd. This year, it's on every 12 inch compilation that comes out.

it always seems that as soon as some of these mixes finally make an appearance on an original reissue of some band's work, then the mix is finally tossed onto numerous compilations.

These compilations are getting very dull indeed just like EMI in general. I would safely bet they will have used the cherry red Some People mix as well.

The US disco mix of Blondie's Rapture is nowhere as good as the UK Special Disco Mix.

I actually prefer the US 12" mix of Blondie, which I think is actually the original FULL LENGTH version. All it is is the album version with the missing verse included that is in the UK disco version. I'm pretty sure they recorded the full 7 and a half minute version and then had to edit it down to 6 and a half minutes to include on the album.

Got my copy, and I think the Belouis Some actually sounds better on here.

Budaniel, which extended version of Tesla Girls is it?

It's [b]80s 12"[/b] Party, and is not part of the 12"/80s series.
