..then it must be another version.

Some anomalies I've noticed with a couple of Stiff tracks with the non-stiff version being different.

Just got around to listening to these. That is quite a difference.

Seems like the Stiff versions seem to be trying just a little bit harder (and maybe in retrospect end up sounding just a little bit more "80s")

Interesting to see Personal Column making their <a href="http://www.personalcolumn.info/music.html">stuff</a> available for the price of a contact.

Thanks for sharing, interesting comparison.

You're welcome Terim. [:)]

You're right about the way Stiff treated them, I prefer their version of Motor Boys Motor and the original one of PS.

That's where I got the track from, it's very good of them to release it for free.
