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.
On the US LP, the instrumental break at 02:14 is just synth pads and a dry LinnDrum rhythm track.

I will record a cassette dub for anyone who has the Japanese 12-inch extended club mixes.

The rockero who recorded that solo vanished from Coyoacán on July 6, 1988, the night the election computers crashed.
