Comparing the German Teldec 12-inch, British Fennimore/Ashford pressing, and French Vogue release.

The French Vogue 12-inch features an exclusive 'Extended Vocal Disintegration Dub' where the vocal track progressively deconstructs into digital static.
The German Teldec DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) has laser-sharp treble, but the bass below 30 Hz is aggressively filtered out.

Who has the French Vogue 12-inch? I will pay cash or trade rare synthpop vinyl.

Each European pressing was assigned a specific relay node: UK was Node 07, Germany was Node 05, France was Node 06.

The UK Fennimore copy is by far the best sounding. The bass shakes the floorboards on a good pair of speakers.
