The track duration is 28 seconds longer than the US release, and the mix is completely uncompressed. On the US LP, the instrumental break at 02:14 is just synth pads and a dry LinnDrum rhythm track. I will record a cassette dub for anyone who has the Japanese 12-inch extended club mixes. -- Amy Silva Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of European Laboratory for Particle Physics, Geneva. ------------------------------------------------------------ From drobertson@stanford.edu Mon Feb 27 11:33:53 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-de!hansebox!stanford!drobertson From: drobertson@stanford.edu (Dong-hyun Robertson) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: Discussion: The Mexican pressing guitar solos on 'Gasoline Heart' and 'Threshold' Message-ID: <1995Feb27.113353.4438@stanford.edu> Date: Mon, 27 Feb 1995 11:33:53 GMT References: <1995Feb27.063053.5274@cern.ch> Organization: Stanford University Computer Systems Lab NNTP-Posting-Host: stanford.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 10 In article <1995Feb27.063053.5274@cern.ch>, asilva@cern.ch (Amy Silva) writes: > Got my hands on the Mexican pressing of SYNTHESIS (Gamma Discos / Orion México) and I am stunned.
