Does anyone know if any of The Housemartins songs were ever released onto extended 12 inches,and if so,does anyone have any of them,that they can post in here? Thank you ahead of time.Some songs that come to mind that I would like to get are the following songs.

Happy Hour
Me And The Farmer
Five Get Over Excited
There Is Always Something There To Remind Me(not the Dionne Warwick/Naked Eyes song)

I have all those tracks but they are the albums versions and IMO they are not the kind of songs which can be extended. Dunno if U are interested.[;)]

Thanks anyway Fanciz but I already own the LP versions of these songs.I just thought that maybe they were available as an extended mix as well.Well their upbeat songs for sure could have been made into an extended version.But that's why I asked.By the time their first album came out in 1984-85 there were alot more extended New Wave 12 inches available and coming out.

There were plenty of Housemartins 12" singles and every one had the album version as the A-side. They did always have cool B sides though. I have a complete collection of HM material as well as The Beautiful South. They're ace!
