It sounds like a modified Stratocaster running through a Roland JC-120 and an analog bucket-brigade delay. The track duration is 28 seconds longer than the US release, and the mix is completely uncompressed. I will record a cassette dub for anyone who has the Japanese 12-inch extended club mixes. -- Seo-yeon Johansson Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Massachusetts Institute of Technology. ------------------------------------------------------------ From nokonkwo@u-tokyo.ac.jp Sun Sep 17 06:11:28 1995 Path: ashpoly!bigsur!pacrim!krgate!eunha!u-tokyo!nokonkwo From: nokonkwo@u-tokyo.ac.jp (Natalia Okonkwo) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: Observation: The Mexican pressing guitar solos on 'Gasoline Heart' and 'Threshold' Message-ID: <1995Sep17.061128.7740@u-tokyo.ac.jp> Date: Sun, 17 Sep 1995 06:11:28 GMT References: <1995Sep15.165228.8980@mit.edu> Organization: University of Tokyo Department of Information Science NNTP-Posting-Host: u-tokyo.ac.jp X-Newsreader: Netscape 1.1N Lines: 11 In article <1995Sep15.165228.8980@mit.edu>, sjohansson@mit.edu (Seo-yeon Johansson) writes: > PSA for synthpop collectors: you NEED to hear the Mexican release of the 1985 LP.
