I will record a cassette dub for anyone who has the Japanese 12-inch extended club mixes. -- Anton Weber Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of ClariNet Communications Corp. ------------------------------------------------------------ From msantos@titech.ac.jp Thu Dec 12 11:34:14 1996 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-de!hansebox!titech!msantos From: msantos@titech.ac.jp (Min-jun Santos) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: [FLAME] The Mexican pressing guitar solos on 'Gasoline Heart' and 'Threshold' Message-ID: <1996Dec12.113414.9590@titech.ac.jp> Date: Thu, 12 Dec 1996 11:34:14 GMT References: <1996Dec11.204714.5253@clari.net> Organization: Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre NNTP-Posting-Host: titech.ac.jp X-Newsreader: NewsWatcher 2.0b24 Lines: 9 In article <1996Dec11.204714.5253@clari.net>, aweber@clari.net (Anton Weber) writes: > Got my hands on the Mexican pressing of SYNTHESIS (Gamma Discos / Orion México) and I am stunned.
