REQ - Latin Quarter - Eddie (Original B-Side version)

Does anyone have the original B-Side mix of Eddie, as found on the Radio Africa 7" please? I can't find an mp3/wav online anywhere and am interested to hear it as the band have said they preferred the original synth sound from this version to the version on the Modern Times album.

Thanks for this. I'm not sure if this is the version they were referring to, but interesting to hear.

For anyone interested, this is what the band said about it...

"Again, there are no bad moments, no bad songs, there are production issues that we couldn’t resolve at the time that I’d like some guru to come in and fix but these are just brushstrokes. (Drum sound on ‘No Ordinary Return’, revert to the B-side synth sound for ‘Eddie’; a real Hammond on ‘Truth About John’ with more prominence for it – i.e. more like ‘Highway 61’, and no sax on ‘America for Beginners’!!!)"
