I also downloaded the track so thanks to magnum, but please note that this 320 mp3 is not a 'real' one, just (unnecessarily) inflated from Soundcloud's 128 mp3. The video at youtube here has better audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZRYeYwiDDU so I grabbed it, demuxed it and what we get is this AAC file: http://www42.zippyshare.com/v/94546290/file.html

Until someone provides us with a rip from the actual cd :mrgreen: , I guess this is the best thing around.

Nice... and here is the same, but wrapped in an MP4 container, so it is a seekable and taggable ".m4a" file:

is this the one that was only played once on radio one 12 june 1985? I just found my copy of that on the end of an old police gig i was converting. Only way to describe it is it has a lot of old bond film dialogue mixed in rather pointlessly.
Fuck's sake mate how do you manage all those usernames on guitars101 and greasy lake?

Nope, its a gimmick free Steve Thompson and Michael Barbiero mix, doesn't particularly enhance the track but certainly worthy of a listen, sure its on youtube these days.

What an odd mix. Any other differences?

as you know i put it up somewhere private but it's not the most thrilling recording i've ever converted. But you find all sorts of stuff stuck on the end of gigs to fill the tapes up. It was the same with that howard one stuck on the end of a police gig from 1979.
