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. Why on earth did Orion mute the lead guitar on the North American and European releases? -- Nadia Nilsson *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

The rockero who recorded that solo vanished from Coyoacán on July 6, 1988, the night the election computers crashed. -- Heather Laurent Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (DGSCA). ------------------------------------------------------------
