Isn't the US 12" mix an edit of the original 12"?

What version appeared on So80s 8? Does anyone have it?

It kinda has a weird fade out doesn't it?

This was Paul Sinclairs reply to why this wasn't on the box set of SFTBG (Because it shouldn’t have been 40 seconds longer. That was simply an error where someone accidentally left the tape running. It sounds terrible, and is in no way an official remix. It was never released in the 1980s for a start.) It's on this as well http://www.discogs.com/Blank-Jones-So80 ... se/4553151

I'm lost here. The 8.02 extended version IS on the box set... http://www.discogs.com/Tears-For-Fears- ... se/6278001

This will clear it up somebody leaving a comment about the MFSL CD on Discogs.

The regular runtime for the UK Extended Mix of Shout is 7:40 minutes.
On this CD we find a first generation master from which the later production masters have been created. These were fade out after 7:40 minutes.
The full master is not fade out at this point and has a little „error“ at the end as the music is fading out and then fading in again for a few seconds.
As this version has never meant to be released in this full and unedited form it appears on no other media so far. Not even on the Super Deluxe Box Set of the Album which will be released in November 2014. Only the 7:40 min. version is included there which is surely disappointing for some fans.
In 2013 a shorter „full“ version was a released on the so80s Vol. 8 Sampler which runs 8:02 minutes. It is in fact the MFSL version which is faded out at 8:02 minutes in order to avoid the „error“ at the end.
Probably Blank & Jones did not get the permission to release the full MFSL version so this release is maybe the only „longer“ alternative to the original UK Extended Mix beside the MFSL CD.
Therefore only the MFSL pressing contains the full and unedited UK Extended Mix worldwide which makes it a true collector’s item.

I've been looking for 10 minutes so not to have to post this but no luck... So what is the MFSL CD?

The Shout (Extended Mix) clocks at 8:16 and that's right: the mix has a little „error“ at the end as the music is fading out and then fading in again for a few seconds.

Cheers for share!
