REQ: David Austin - Turn To Gold 12"

Postby xymox970 » Thu May 23, 2013 3:48 am

Hi

just joined and was wondering if anyone could help me with finding David Austins Turn To Gold from 1984, produced, co-written and with backing vocals by George Michael.

The single mix is readily available on at least one well-known eighties compilation, but there is an extended and instrumental version on the 12" that are far better and hard to find.

Thanks in advance!

I do not have it, but the Extended Version features on his EP which is for sale on eBay for $70, I can't find it anywhere else...

I knew he has released additional singles, but didnt like them as much as Turn To Gold, so I guess this 12" is the only one I am after:
