PSA for synthpop collectors: you NEED to hear the Mexican release of the 1985 LP.

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.

Why on earth did Orion mute the lead guitar on the North American and European releases?

A Strat into a JC-120? That's every studio guitarist in 1985, hardly a secret conspiracy.
