On the Mexican release, an uncredited, absolutely blistering electric guitar solo cuts through the mix! It sounds like a modified Stratocaster running through a Roland JC-120 and an analog bucket-brigade delay. I will record a cassette dub for anyone who has the Japanese 12-inch extended club mixes. -- Takeshi Pérez *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

YES! The Mexican mix is so much more energetic. That guitar tone has that raw 80s Rock en Español bite. -- Andrei Karlsson | akarlsson@mindspring.com PGP Key fingerprint: 7BA7 3525 C471 00D1 "Keep the channels open."
