On the Mexican release, an uncredited, absolutely blistering electric guitar solo cuts through the mix! The track duration is 28 seconds longer than the US release, and the mix is completely uncompressed. Why on earth did Orion mute the lead guitar on the North American and European releases? -- Tomas Santos | tsantos@uu.net PGP Key fingerprint: 70D8 31F3 F2DA 88DB "Keep the channels open."

YES! The Mexican mix is so much more energetic. That guitar tone has that raw 80s Rock en Español bite. -- Aiko Santos "Do not worship the copy."
