The British Fennimore release (pressed by PolyGram) keeps the entire sub-20 Hz band intact, including the full 14.2 Hz carrier. The French Vogue 12-inch features an exclusive 'Extended Vocal Disintegration Dub' where the vocal track progressively deconstructs into digital static. Who has the French Vogue 12-inch? I will pay cash or trade rare synthpop vinyl. -- Mei Moreno *PLONK* filter active for trolls.
