Tracklist: 01.Pet Shop Boys - Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots Of Money) (Shep Pettibone Mastermix) (7:18) 02.Pet Shop Boys - Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots Of Money) (Reprise) (4:27) 03.Pet Shop Boys - Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots Of Money) (Original Dance Mix) (6:45) 04.Pet Shop Boys - Was That What It Was? (5:14) “Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots of Money)” is a song by UK duo Pet Shop Boys, released as a single in 1985 and then in 1986, gaining greater popularity in both the United Kingdom and United States with its second release, reaching number 11 in the UK Singles Chart and number 10 in the US Billboard Hot 100. The song’s indirect attack on its subject matter has come to exemplify the Pet Shop Boys as ironists in their songwriting. This 12″ is for the 1986 re-release which becam a worldwide hit and features remixes by noted 1980s producer Shep Pettibone. Shep Pettibone did not mix “Was That What It Was?”; he was booked to do so, but missed his plane, and his manager, Jane Brinton, mixed the song in his absence. It is unknown if Shep Pettibone was consulting the manager over the phone. This fact went unnoticed until Pet Shop Boys revealed it in the liner notes for the Alternative anthology of B-sides and rarities (1995), though Jane Brinton gets a “Thanks to” mention on the 12″ cover. After a Super Bowl ad featuring the song, it re-entered the Billboard's Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales chart at No. 5 on February 20, 2021.

Warner Bros. pushed "E.S.P." even more heavily with many alternate mixes on 12-inch singles. The reprise, a piece of the a cappella opening, was used as the closing number of the album.

It reached #10 on the Irish singles chart, and became a Top 40 hit in Germany, where it reached #38. The song was not released as a single in the United States. This release has become more notable for the B-sides that were included with "You Surround Me". First was a cover version of Cerrone's environmental anthem "Supernature". The song, also previously recorded by Lene Lovich, led to a collaboration between Erasure and Lovich for the song "Rage", which later appeared on a PETA benefit album. Erasure's recording was remixed by William Orbit and became a popular hit in dance clubs. Also included on the single as a B-side is "91 Steps", an instrumental with complex synthesizer programming and unusual time signature. The track utilises repeating cycles in which the first seven bars use a 7/4 time signature, followed by one bar in 3/4 time.
Tracklist: 01.Paula Abdul - Knocked Out (House 12") (7:31) 02.Paula Abdul - Knocked Out (Pettibone 12" Mix) (6:12) 03.Paula Abdul - Knocked Out (Bassey Thang) (5:57) "Knocked Out" is the debut single by American singer Paula Abdul, released on May 4, 1988. It was the first single from her debut album, Forever Your Girl. The song was originally included on a Virgin Records sampler for the launch of Virgin Records America. In spring 1988, it was released as a single to test Abdul's commercial appeal. "Knocked Out" proved to be very successful for a low budget single; it became a top 10 R&B hit. In the UK, "Knocked Out" was released three times. It was Abdul's first single and charted on September 24, 1988, peaking at a lowly #98. Following the success of "Straight Up" and its follow-up, "Forever Your Girl", "Knocked Out" was reissued and peaked at #41 on 19 August 1989. Finally, after the huge success of "Opposites Attract" in 1990, the single was extensively reworked by Shep Pettibone and it entered the UK Top 30, peaking at #21 on July 28, 1990. The Pettibone 12" version of "Knocked Out" which was released in the UK as well as Germany was from the Shut Up and Dance remix album. While this version was not issued as a single in the United States, it did receive significant airplay and just missed the American Top 40, peaking at #41. Tracks A1 and B2 are exclusive to this release.
Tracklist: 01.Belinda Carlisle - Summer Rain (Extended Version) (8:01) 02.Belinda Carlisle - Summer Rain (Dub) (6:52) "Summer Rain" is a song written by Robbie Seidman and Maria Vidal, produced by Rick Nowels for Belinda Carlisle's third album Runaway Horses (1989). "Summer Rain" achieved moderate commercial success in North America, where it was released as the second single from Runaway Horses (1989). In January 1990, the song entered the Billboard Hot 100, the main US chart, at number 86. Within seven weeks of its release, it peaked at number 30 and stayed at that position for two weeks. The single spent 13 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, six of which were in the top 50. The single was Carlisle's second to last song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. It also peaked at number 29 on the US Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, where it spent eight weeks on the chart. In Australia, the song had the most commercial success, where it was released as the album's third single on March 19, 1990. In early April 1990, it debuted at number 42. Within two months of its release, it reached the top 10, where it stayed for five weeks. The song reached a peak at number six on May 20 and remained there for two more weeks, spending a total of 16 weeks in the top 50. It became the 40th highest-selling single in Australia for 1990. The song was released in the United Kingdom in December 1990 as the sixth and final release from Runaway Horses, peaking at number 23 at the end of January 1991 and spending 10 weeks in the chart.
Tracklist: 01.Madonna - Justify My Love (William Orbit Remix) (7:15) 02.Madonna - Justify My Love (4:58) 03.Madonna - Express Yourself (Shep's 'Spressin' Himself Re-Remix) (4:02) "Justify My Love" is a song by American singer Madonna from her first greatest hits compilation album The Immaculate Collection (1990). It was released on November 6, 1990, by Sire Records as the lead single from The Immaculate Collection. The song was written by Lenny Kravitz and Ingrid Chavez, with additional lyrics by Madonna. Chavez was not credited on the song, which led to a lawsuit against Kravitz. Chavez settled out-of-court, the terms of which included a songwriting credit. Madonna's vocals are primarily spoken and whispered, but almost never sung, a style that she later employed on her following studio album Erotica (1992). Musically, "Justify My Love" is a trip hop song, with mid-tempo settings and instrumentation. The lyrics of the song are primarily about sex and romance. "Justify My Love" received mixed reviews from older critics, but was critically appreciated by many contemporary critics, noting it as one of Madonna's best songs to date. The song became Madonna's ninth number one single on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number two in the United Kingdom, while reaching the Top 10 in several countries including Australia, Canada, Finland, New Zealand, Italy and Switzerland. The accompanying music video portrayed Madonna as a woman walking in a hotel hallway, looking distressed and tired from work, until being seduced into having sex with a mysterious man and woman. It caused controversy worldwide, due to its explicit sexual images, and was subsequently banned from MTV and other TV networks. The video, which contained imagery of sadomasochism, voyeurism, and bisexuality, made its US television debut December 3, 1990, on ABC during its late-night news program Nightline. The song was part of the setlist of three of her concert tours, the most recent being The MDNA Tour in 2012. In 2003, Q Magazine ranked "Justify My Love" at number 842 in their list of the "1001 Best Songs Ever".

Tracklist: 01.David Bowie - Hallo Spaceboy (12" Remix) (6:42) 02.David Bowie - Hallo Spaceboy (7" Remix) (4:25) 03.David Bowie - Hallo Spaceboy (Lost In Space Mix) (6:32) 04.David Bowie - Hallo Spaceboy (Double Click Mix) (7:46) "Hallo Spaceboy" is a song by David Bowie from his 1995 album Outside, and the third and final single from the album. The track was re-recorded in 1996 and issued as a remix featuring Pet Shop Boys as guest artists. Bowie and Brian Eno co-wrote the original album version of the song. In late December 1995, Bowie was intending "Hallo Spaceboy" to be his next single after "Strangers When We Meet", and recorded a video for the song at a concert in Birmingham. The song "Hallo Spaceboy" was performed twice at the venue, once as part of the regular set and once as the last encore, with that final performance intended to be the official music video for the song. Two live songs from the set, "Moonage Daydream" and "Under Pressure", were used as b-sides to the single release as well. However, the Pet Shop Boys were approached to remix the song as well, and their remix was used as the official single version instead. Neil Tennant explained that since the original song had only a single verse, Lowe suggested using lyrical fragments from Bowie's 1969 song "Space Oddity" to create a second verse. Bowie initially expressed reservation about the additions when Tennant initially told him during a telephone conversation, but later agreed that they worked well. Tennant told NME in a 1997 interview that he and Lowe, working alongside Bowie, had completed what Tennant called the "Major Tom trilogy", in reference to a fictional character who first appeared in Space Oddity and who had later recurred in Bowie's 1980 song "Ashes to Ashes". Tennant explained, "I said to David Bowie, 'It's like Major Tom is in one of those Russian spaceships they can’t afford to bring down,' and he [Bowie] said, 'Oh wow, is that where he is?'" The final official music video for "Hallo Spaceboy" was directed by David Mallet, mixing shots of both Bowie and the Pet Shop Boys into a rapid-fire montage of Cold War era retro-footage of science fiction film clips, atomic bomb testing footage, and television advertising clips. The remixes by Dave Ball (known as the instrumentalist of Soft Cell) and Ingo Vauk are based on the Pet Shop Boys Remix, but only Double Click Mix uses Neil Tennant's vocals.

Да уж, мощная уже подборка получается. Кое-чего не хватает конечно, например Kylie, но в таком объёме это простительно.
По сути, Вы сделали резервную копию сайта Пола. И теперь, когда многих рипов уже нет, это спасает.
У меня всё это есть, но харды имеют свойство осыпаться в самый неподходящий момент, и я знаю где это найти.

Meddows, насчет Кайли, спасибо! Не понимаю каким образом я его пропустил.. добавлю при обновлении.
насчет резервной копии - я Пола поставил в известность как-то..)

DMMANIAC, ещё были "Ace of Base" и "Gary Glitter".
К сожалению, у меня пока очень медленный инет на отдачу. Как будет время и желание попробую оформить у "соседей" и кину вам ссылку. А может просто залью на обменник, чего-то лениво что-либо оформлять.

Tracklist: 01.Nick Kamen - Each Time You Break My Heart (Extended Version) (8:32) 02.Nick Kamen - Each Time You Break My Heart (Dub) (8:47) 03.Nick Kamen - Each Time You Break My Heart (Radio Mix) (4:00) "Each Time You Break My Heart" is a 1986 song recorded by singer Nick Kamen. It was his debut single from his album Nick Kamen, released in 1987. The song achieved success in many European countries, including Ireland, Italy, UK, Swiss, and in the U.S. it was a top-five hit on the dance charts. Written and produced by Madonna and Stephen Bray, it also cracked both the U.S. dance chart (remix by Shep Pettibone) and the Top 50 in Canada. Madonna had originally written and recorded the song for her "True Blue" album, but it did not make the cut. Her original version remains unreleased officially but has leaked onto the internet. It is almost identical in melody and structure to Kamen's version.
Tracklist: 01.Madonna - Into The Groove (Extended Remix) (8:35) 02.Madonna - Into The Groove (Dub) (6:22) 03.Madonna - Everybody (Extended Remix) (7:06) "Into the Groove" is a song by American singer Madonna from the 1985 film Desperately Seeking Susan originally released in 1984. In 1987 The song was remixed by Shep Pettibone for Madonna's remix compilation You Can Dance. In the United States a promotiomal 12" single was issued containing exclusive umixed versions without the inclusion of the fade in and outs that are present on the album. The 12" also ibcludes a remix of Madonna's debut single"Everybody" remixed by Bruce Forest, and Frank Heller with additional keyboards by David Cole of C + C Music Factory. This version is also taken from the You Can Dance remix compilation and is exclusive to this 12" promo. ** Also of note at the end of both versions of "Into The Groove" during the fade ot there is a bump sound this is not a flaw I have two copies of this 12" and this is present in both copies. This is alo present in the promo CD which contains the single edits of the songs.
Tracklist: 01.Pet Shop Boys - It’s A Sin (Phil Harding Latin Vocal Mix) (9:16) 02.Pet Shop Boys - It’s A Sin (Phil Harding Latin Dub Mix) (4:22) 03.Pet Shop Boys - It’s A Sin (Remix) (8:16) 04.Pet Shop Boys - It’s A Sin (Disco Mix) (7:42) 05.Pet Shop Boys - You Know Where You Went Wrong (5:51) "It's a Sin" is a song by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys from their second studio album, Actually (1987). Written by Chris Lowe and Neil Tennant, the song was released on 15 June 1987 as the album's lead single. It became the duo's second number-one single on the UK Singles Chart, spending three weeks atop the chart. Additionally, the single topped the charts in Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland, while reaching number nine on the US Billboard Hot 100. A demo of the track was first cut in 1984 with Bobby Orlando, and the song's form in the demo remained intact to the final version, although the released production is far more dramatic. The dramatic, overblown production style of the song, loaded with synthesizers, orchestra hits and bookended by a non sequitur sample of a NASA countdown, has come to exemplify the most theatrical extremes of the Pet Shop Boys' musical style.[3] It remains a concert staple, being one of only two songs (alongside "West End Girls") that has been played during every Pet Shop Boys tour. The band stated at the time that they had been keen for Stock Aitken Waterman to produce the song, as they were huge fans. Neil has stated that Pete Waterman hated the demo so they turned instead to SAW's remix engineer Phil Harding to remix the song for the US release (which went uncredited on the sleeve). They would work with him again on "I'm Not Scared", the single they wrote for the Patsy Kensit band Eighth Wonder and remixes of "Always on My Mind". Bursting with melodramatic orchestral stabs, a NASA countdown, and huge-sounding, sweeping synths "It's A Sin" secured itself in Gay culture permenantly becoming a Pride Anthem.
Tracklist: 01.Tina Turner - What You Get Is What You See (Extended Dance Mix) (6:27) 02.Tina Turner - What You Get Is What You See (Single Mix) (3:56) 03.Tina Turner - What You Get Is What You See (Extended Rock Mix) (5:56) 04.Tina Turner - What You Get Is What You See (Live) (4:48) "What You Get Is What You See" is a song by recording artist Tina Turner from her album Break Every Rule (1986). The song was written by the Terry Britten and Graham Lyle team and was notably different from the three previous singles that they had written for Turner, "What's Love Got to Do with It", "We Don't Need Another Hero" and "Two People", as it was an up-tempo country-tinged rock track featuring Eric Clapton on guitars. Tina Turner said in an interview that "What You Get Is What You See" is her favorite song from the album.
Tracklist: 01.Liza Minnelli - Don't Drop Bombs (Extended Remix) (5:56) 02.Liza Minnelli - Don't Drop Bombs (Dub Mix) (5:46) 03.Liza Minnelli - Don't Drop Bombs (Acapella) (3:42) "Don't Drop Bombs" is the second single from Liza Minnelli's album Results, produced by Pet Shop Boys and Julian Mendelsohn. "Don't Drop Bombs" was popular on the club circuit, but failed to make the Top 40 in the UK, peaking at No. 46. The single would only find its way the US club scene as an import and on the DJ subscription remix services.
Tracklist: 01.Madonna - Like A Prayer (12" Dance Mix) (7:50) 02.Madonna - Like A Prayer (Instra Dub) (6:10) 03.Madonna - Like A Prayer (Bass Dub) (5:47) 04.Madonna - Like A Prayer (12" Club Version) (6:35) 05.Madonna - Like A Prayer (Dub Beats) (4:40) 06.Madonna - Like A Prayer (7" Remix/Edit) (5:41) Celebrating 32 years of Like A Prayer "Like a Prayer" is a song recorded by American singer Madonna for her fourth studio album of the same name. Sire Records released it as the album's lead single on March 3, 1989. Written and produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard, the track heralded an artistic and personal approach to songwriting for Madonna, who believed that she needed to cater more to her adult audience. Thematically the song speaks about a passionate young girl in love with God, who becomes the only male figure in her life. "Like a Prayer" was acclaimed by critics and was a worldwide success. It was Madonna's seventh number-one single on the United States' Billboard Hot 100, and topped the singles charts in many other countries, including Australia, Canada, Spain, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Rolling Stone listed "Like a Prayer" among The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The music video, directed by Mary Lambert, portrays Madonna witnessing a young white woman being killed by a group of white men. While a black man is arrested for the murder, Madonna hides in a church for safety, seeking strength to go forth as a witness. The clip depicts a church and Catholic symbols such as stigmata. It also features the Ku Klux Klan's burning crosses and a dream about kissing a black saint. The Vatican condemned the video, while family and religious groups protested against its broadcast. They boycotted products by soft drink manufacturer Pepsi, who had used the song in their commercial. The company canceled their sponsorship contract with Madonna, but allowed her to retain the fee. In the United States a promotional 12" single was released to club and radio disc jockeys to help promote the song. This promotional 12" contained three exclusive Dub Mixes.

Tracklist: 01.Cyndi Lauper - Change Of Heart (Single Edit) (3:58) 02.Cyndi Lauper - Change Of Heart (Long Version Shep's 7" Edit) (5:00) "Change of Heart" is the second single released by American singer Cyndi Lauper from her second album, True Colors on November 11, 1986. The single went gold in the US and peaked at No. 3 in the Billboard Hot 100. As far as I know both edits from the 7" promo are vinyl only mixes. Since the Shep Pettibone 7" Edit appears on both sides of this 7", I also included the "Single Edit" which was taken from another 7" promo both releases have the same catalog number.
Tracklist: 01.Cyndi Lauper - True Colors (3:46) 02.Cyndi Lauper - Money Changes Everything (Live) (6:21) 03.Cyndi Lauper - Heading For The Moon (3:18) This post is for all of you who have had the courage to come out live your truth, and be yourself you are an inspiration to so many. "True Colors" is a song written by American songwriters Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly. It was both the title track and the first single released from American singer Cyndi Lauper's second album. It was the only original song on the album that Lauper did not help to write. Released late in the summer of 1986, the song would become a major hit for Lauper, spending two weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming her last single to occupy the top of the U.S. chart. It received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. The single reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on October 25, 1986, beating Tina Turner's "Typical Male" to the top spot. It also peaked at number three in Australia and New Zealand, and number 12 on the UK Singles Chart. "True Colors" also became a standard in the gay community. In various interviews, Lauper elaborated that the song had resonated with her because of the recent death of her friend, Gregory Natal, from HIV/AIDS. Years later, Lauper co-founded the True Colors Fund, a non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating LGBTQ youth homelessness.
Tracklist: 01.Elton John - Wrap Her Up (Extended Remix) (10:12) 02.Elton John - Restless (Live At Wembley Stadium 1984) (4:26) "Wrap Her Up" is a song by English rock performer Elton John, featured on his 1985 album, Ice on Fire.

Released as a single, it reached number 12 in the UK Singles Chart, number 22 on the Australian Singles Chart, number 26 in Canada on the RPM Top Singles chart and number 20 on the US Billboard Hot 100. George Michael was quoted at the time in Smash Hits magazine that "it sounded like I had my willy in a garotte" because of the falsetto he sings throughout the song. The song is notable for the number of famous women's names dropped toward the end of the song, including Kiki Dee, who had duetted with Elton on the hit song "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" in 1976, and also provided background vocals for "Wrap Her Up." The rest of the list includes (in order) Marlene Dietrich, Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Doris Day, Billie Jean King, Samantha Fox, Joan Collins, Katharine Hepburn, Vivien Leigh, Grace Jones, Priscilla Presley, Vanessa Williams, Dusty Springfield, Nancy Reagan, Rita Hayworth, Madonna (as "Material Girl"), Julie Andrews, Superwoman, Annie Lennox, Mata Hari, Anouska Hempel, Shirley Temple, Tallulah Bankhead, Linda Lovelace, Little Eva, Nastassja Kinski, Princess Caroline of Monaco, Pat Fernandez (a close friend of George Michael who appeared in two Wham! videos), and Elsie Tanner.
Tracklist: 01.Nick Kamen - Nobody Else (Special Arthur Baker Dub Mix) (7:28) 02.Nick Kamen - Nobody Else (Arthur Baker Dance Mix) (7:25) 03.Nick Kamen - Any Day Now (3:49) “Nobody Else” was the second single released in the US and the third in the UK from Nick Kamen’s self titled debut album. Even with several remixes by Jellybean and Arthur Baker the single failed to chart in the US. The single did chart internationally peaking at #47 UK, #19 Ireland and #97 in Italy. The b-side track “Any Day Now” was written by Burt Bacharach and Bob Hilliard in 1962. It has been recorded by numerous artists over the years, including notable versions by Chuck Jackson in 1962, Alan Price in 1965, Elvis Presley in 1969, and Ronnie Milsap in 1982. In 1987 Kamen recorded it for his debut album.
Tracklist: 01.Paul Jabara - Special Intro - Ocho Rios (That 12" Mix) (10:03) 02.Paul Jabara - Ocho Rios (LP Instrumental Mix) (8:49) "Ocho Rios" was the final single released by American actor, singer, and Oscar winning songwriter of Lebanese ancestry, born in Brooklyn, New York, Paul Jabara. The song was taken from the concept musical De La Noche: The True Story – A Poperetta, featuring guest vocals from Leata Galloway, Diva Gray and Pattie Brooks. Though one of 1986's most adventurous and fascinating albums, “De La Noche” got off to a rocky start. The problem stems from the constant references in the song, “Ocho Rios,” to “that Negro from Ocho Rios.” Some blacks consider the word Negro offensive. Dance clubs played the single but radio snubbed it. So did MTV. Too controversial, Jabara was told. Bleeping the word Negro out of the single seemed the obvious answer. But Jabara was against this, insisting it would ruin the song: “If it was blacks talking, they’d say I met a Caucasian in Ocho Rios. That’s funny. If they said ‘I met a white boy in Ocho Rios,’ that’s not funny. The word Negro is funny in ‘Negro From Ocho Rios.’ It’s not a hate word, like all those other names for blacks. What’s all the fuss about?” Actually, there was no fuss. Just the threat of a fuss killed the single before it developed any momentum. Sadly this would become Paul Jabara's last project he died from complications from AIDS in 1992.
Tracklist: 01.'Til Tuesday - Voices Carry (Long Version) (4:21) 02.'Til Tuesday - Voices Carry (Single Mix) (4:04) "Voices Carry" is a song by the American rock band 'Til Tuesday. It was produced by Mike Thorne for the band's debut studio album, Voices Carry (1985). The accompanying music video, directed by D.J. Webster, received wide exposure on MTV and positive reactions from critics. It was nominated for numerous awards and is thought to be the reason behind the song's success. It was released in North America in March 1985. "Voices Carry" became the band's highest charting single and their only top ten hit in the U.S., peaking at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100.

Pointer Sisters — Neutron Dance "Octomnipent Zeitgeist" were two medley's released in 1986 by Hot Tracks Remix Service the medley's appeared on Series 5 issues 1&2. Making Of… "Octomnipent Zeitgeist" Medley's To create the medley, Glenn Cattanach worked with two other DJ's - Greg Lee and Jeff McKeehan. Glenn owned all the equipment, and Greg and Jeff were local club DJ's in Lexington, Kentucky. The three of them had previously made two other medleys together - the "1984 Top 40 Medley" and the "Best of Hot Tracks 1984." Both medleys appeared on Hot Tracks during 1985, which was the 4th year for Hot Tracks. Glenn, Greg & Jeff came up for the idea of a BIG two-part medley for 1985 and started work on it in October of 1985. Greg was really the mastermind behind the medley, being the one with most of the ideas, but the medley was a group effort. Greg reviewed dance charts and came up with the list of songs to include. They named the two-part medley "Octomnipent Zeitgeist" which loosely meant "THE Spirit of '85." These guys wisely kept logs on the entire project, noting the settings for the turntable speed, mix board levels, equalizer settings, tape speed, etc. This enabled them to later re-edit any part that needed perfecting. All the work was done with two turntables, a ¼" track 15 IPS reel to reel recorder, a cassette deck with dbx noise reduction and a variable speed 7½ IPS reel to reel recorder. Digital recording was uncommon in 1985 and no samplers or effects (delay, reverb, echo, and no CD players!) and no multi-track tape recorders were used. The key to the entire medley was what was called the Kentucky Multi-Track method (named that because they were living in Lexington, Kentucky at that time). They would record 8 to 16 beats of a percussion piece to use "under" the song being edited. They looped those beats by splicing a length of edited tape together, sometimes several meters long, and playing it repeatedly while recording that rhythm track to a cassette deck (with dbx noise reduction) for 3 minutes. They would then play that cassette back, mixing in the record/song they were adding to the medley with the rhythm track. To transition to another song, they would use the same rhythm track under the next song to make it sound similar to the previous song. Frequently, several rhythm tracks were sampled, layered and cross-faded. This method was often subtle and always effective. This way the songs did NOT sound like a bunch of turntable mixes that were simply chopped up and edited back together. They used more than 70 or 80 different "loops" or rhythm tracks for the entire medley. Final preparations for "Octomnipent Zeitgeist" included breaking the 35 minute medley into two parts, adding mix breaks between the two parts, and adding a Wizard of Oz theme (since they were calling the separate parts OZ-I and OZ-II). The medley ends with a trickling ultra-high-speed voice-over describing the origin of OZ. Hot Tracks published the medley in January and February 1986 as Series 5, Issues 1 and 2. The mix took 600 man-hours and over three months to complete. It was a labor of love for these guys. They figured out what they had spent on tape (remember, back then everything was on ¼" tape, no hard drive recording) and the vinyl records, they each made only about $40 US. They didn't care. They had created one of the best year-end medleys ever and were known by DJ's around the world.

The single was released on July 28, 1987 in Australia, Sweden and Italy under the title "Locomotion". The song was a success in Australia, reaching number one and remaining there for seven weeks.

This release again was a major success, reaching the top five in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada. Minogue's version of the track appeared in the 1988 film Arthur 2: On the Rocks, starring Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli.

The music video for "Locomotion" was filmed at Essendon Airport and the ABC studios in Melbourne, Australia. The video for "The Loco-Motion" was created out of footage from the Australian music video.

Tracklist: 01.The Normal - T.V.O.D. (2:52) 02.The Normal - Warm Leatherette (3:22) "T.V.O.D."/"Warm Leatherette" is a 1978 single by The Normal a recording artist name used by English music producer Daniel Miller, a film editor at the time, who is best known as the founder of the record label Mute Records. "T.V.O.D."/"Warm Leatherette" was also the first ever release by Mute Records in November, 1978. In 1977, Miller had split up with his girlfriend. A friend suggested that he read a book the friend himself had just finished. The book was Crash (1973) by J.G. Ballard. He felt that Ballard's writing took him five minutes into the future; the novel was to be a major influence in the music he would produce as The Normal. Miller was disillusioned by the fact you needed to learn three chords to be in a punk band, so he decided to purchase a synthesiser. His thinking was that you only needed to learn to press one key on a synthesiser. After buying a Korg 700s synthesiser from Macari's music shop in London, Miller recorded and released a single under the name The Normal. This was "T.V.O.D."/"Warm Leatherette". Both tracks were minimalist electronic songs influenced by the Crash novel. He wanted the sound of the recordings to be visual, like driving along a highway between large buildings then going through a tunnel. The single was recorded in Daniel Miller's house using a TEAC four track tape recorder and the Korg mini700s synthesiser. Songs by The Normal have been covered and performed by many notable artists such as Grace Jones, Sleep Chamber, Chicks on Speed/Hell on a split-7", Giddle and Boyd Rice and in 2006 by Trent Reznor with Jeordie White and Peter Murphy. "Warm Leatherette" was performed live by Duran Duran in November 2007 as part of an electro medley during their 2008 tour, in support of their album Red Carpet Massacre. Both songs were re-issued in the 1980s on 12" single by Mute Records.

After Arista Records demanded the song be recorded, Malin Berggren, looking to take a secondary role in the band, initially refused to record it. Instead,Jenny Berggren originally recorded the song solo for the group. According to Ace Of Base's Jonas Berggren, once Clive Davis found out that song was recorded by Jenny Berggren he had called Malin Berggren and threatened her. Scared Berggren flew to Norway to record her vocals, and demanded that she only do one take. This one vocal take was used for the released version. "She was sad", Jonas Berggren wrote to fans about the incident in February, 2011. "And you can hear she didn't like it". According to her brother, it is after that incident that Berggren had decided she doesn't want to be involved in the music industry anymore. A radio edit of the ballad hit radios on April 5, 1999. It was also remixed for American audiences and promotionally released as a lead single for their Greatest Hits record in April 2000. The song was not released commercially in the United States.

Tracklist: 01.Dead or Alive - Brand New Lover (Up Ducky Mix) (6:28) 02.Dead or Alive - Brand New Lover (The Dust Monkey's Love Bubble Club Mix) (9:04) I originally posted the U.S. 12" way back in July, 2012 that single contained four tracks at 33 RPM which I always thought lacked a bit of dynamic range since the tracks are a bit more compressed onto the record. This time around I decided to give the 45 RPM pressed Japan 12" a new restoration/transfer I had posted it in 2011 but removed it after posting the U.S. 12" in 2012 sonically I think it sounds much better giving each mix it's own side to strech out it's grooves. I hope you guys enjoy this new transfer. "Brand New Lover" is a song recorded by the British band Dead or Alive. It was the lead single released from the band's third album, Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know on Epic Records. It achieved international success when released as a single in 1986. The lyrics describe the singer's desire to leave his current partner for one who is more exciting. His motivation is that he admittedly does not desire a stable relationship with one partner, but rather is "a pleasure seeker." The song proved to be more successful in the U.S. and in Japan than in the band's native UK, where it reached number 31. In the US, "Brand New Lover" peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (The band's second and last single to reach the top 20), and spent two weeks at #1 on the American dance chart in December 1986.
Tracklist: 01.Duran Duran - Notorious (Extended Mix) (5:15) 02.Duran Duran - Notorious (45 Mix) (3:59) 03.Duran Duran - Winter Marches On (3:24) "Notorious" is the fourteenth single by the English new wave band Duran Duran. It was released internationally by EMI on 20 October 1986. "Notorious" was the first single issued from Duran Duran's fourth album Notorious (1986), and the first released by Duran Duran as a 3-piece band after the departure of Roger Taylor and Andy Taylor. It was a commercial success worldwide, reaching number seven on the UK Singles Chart and number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, and was a success in various other countries. "Notorious" marked the debut of the new streamlined trio version of Duran Duran, as Andy Taylor and Roger Taylor had left the band by the time the album was released. In fact, the acrimonious nature of Andy Taylor's departure was reflected in the song to a certain degree. According to songwriter Simon Le Bon, the lyric "Who really gives a damn for a flaky bandit" was a direct dig at the guitarist. As a trio, the band had enlisted the help of Nile Rodgers to take over production duties. His funk influences can be heard throughout the single - for example, the tempo and the use of The Borneo Horns brass section. Rodgers also played the guitar on the single. For the first time, the B-side to the 7" single was not an original recording; "Winter Marches On" was an unaltered version of the Notorious album track. Before this, Duran Duran had always provided either completely original songs or previously unheard remixes on the B-side. As a first for the band, "Notorious" was released as two separate 12" singles. The first had a Nile Rodgers produced "Extended Mix" while the second featured a remix by The Latin Rascals.
Tracklist: 01.Prince And The Revolution - Mountains (Extended Version) (9:53) 02.Prince And The Revolution - Alexa De Paris (Extended Version) (4:54) "Mountains" is a 1986 song by Prince and The Revolution, from the album Parade, the soundtrack to the film Under the Cherry Moon. It was written by The Revolution members Wendy & Lisa together with Prince. The extended 12" single version of the song runs nearly ten minutes. It reached number 23 in the US but only 45 in the UK. The B-side was the instrumental "Alexa de Paris", one of the few tracks from this project featuring a guitar solo. Both songs appear in the film Under the Cherry Moon, with the video for "Mountains" playing as the credits roll. The version shown on MTV to promote the single was in color as opposed to the film's black-and-white version.
Tracklist: 01.Talking Heads - Wild Wild Life (Extended Mix) (5:30) 02.Talking Heads - Wild Wild Life (LP Version) (3:40) 03.John Goodman - People Like Us (Movie Version) (4:27) "Wild Wild Life" is a song by American rock band Talking Heads, released as the lead single from their seventh studio album True Stories. It was the band's third and last top 40 hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The video for the song won "Best Group Video" at the MTV Video Music Awards in 1987. Taken from the film True Stories, with some additional content, it includes band member Jerry Harrison parodying Billy Idol, Kid Creole, Ralph Macchio's character Karate Kid, and Prince. Actor John Goodman, prior to his fame in the sitcom Roseanne, appeared in both the film and MTV versions of the video. Goodman was also featured on the B-side's "People Like Us", a song that also appeared in the film.

Tracklist: 01.The Rolling Stones - One Hit (To The Body) (London Mix) (7:02) 02.The Rolling Stones - One Hit (To The Body) (Edit) (4:08) 03.The Rolling Stones - Fight (3:10) In memory of drummer Charlie Watts 1941-2021. Watts had been a member of the Stones since January 1963, when he joined Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Brian Jones in their fledgling group. Watts helped them become, with The Beatles, one of the bands who took rock 'n' roll to the masses in the 60s with classics like (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Get Off My Cloud and Sympathy for the Devil. He will be deeply missed. "One Hit (To the Body)" is the opening track to English rock band The Rolling Stones' 1986 album Dirty Work. The first Rolling Stones single to feature a Ron Wood co-writing credit with Jagger and Richards, it charted in the USA, Netherlands and Australia. Reaching number 80 in the UK, it was their poorest charting single at the time. Credited to lead singer Mick Jagger, guitarist Keith Richards and guitarist Ron Wood, "One Hit (To the Body)" was largely the work of Richards and Wood. Both guitarists contributed heavily to Dirty Work overall, with Wood receiving credit alongside Jagger and Richards on another three songs. A sign of Wood's heavy contribution is the song's distinctive opening of an acoustic piece. Wood used Richards' own 1967 Martin D-18 to perform the jam in an attempt to come up with a proper electric riff, but the acoustic version remained. The band is known for their use of acoustic guitars to "shadow" their electric guitars; "Brown Sugar" is a prime example. Both Richards and Wood played electric, but the solo was provided by Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page. Page's contribution was the result of a short studio session between him and Wood after Page's request to hear what the band was working on. Drummer Charlie Watts provides the song's driving beat as well as its notable cymbal opening, while Bill Wyman plays bass. Backing vocals on the song were provided by Richards, Wood, Bobby Womack, Patti Scialfa, Don Covay, and producer Steve Lillywhite's wife Kirsty MacColl. Recording and re-recording lasted throughout much of 1985. Two locations used were the Pathé Marconi Studios in Paris and New York City's RPM Studios. "One Hit (To the Body)" was released as Dirty Work's second single on 16 May in the United Kingdom and 9 May in the United States with album track "Fight" as its B-side. The single reached the top 30 in the US. Dirty Work has long been known as the album produced at the height of Jagger and Richards' feud during the 1980s.
Tracklist: 01.Cabaret Voltaire - Here To Go (Extended Mix) (6:57) 02.Cabaret Voltaire - Here To Go (Space Dub) (7:59) In Memory of Richard H. Kirk (1956-2021), who passed away last week, was the co-founder of Cabaret Voltaire, the Sheffield group he formed with Stephen Mallinder and Chris Watson in the mid-1970s. His work with Cabaret Voltaire laid the groundwork for electro-pop, industrial and even punk. He will be missed. "Here To Go" was the second single taken from the eighth studio album C O D E by English electronic band Cabaret Voltaire. "Here To Go" was released in September, 1987 peaking at #16 on the US Billboard Dance Chart, and #88 in the UK.
Tracklist: 01.Duran Duran - American Science (Chemical Reaction Mix) (7:42) 02.Duran Duran - Vertigo (Do The Demolition) (Mantronix Mix) (6:27) 03.Duran Duran - Skin Trade (Parisian Mix) (8:09) 04.Duran Duran - American Science (Meltdown Dub) (7:24) 05.Duran Duran - Vertigo (Do The Demolition) (B-Boy Mix) (5:57) 06.Duran Duran - Master Mix (Notoriousaurus Rex) (7:20) 07.Duran Duran - Skin Trade (S.O.S. Dub) (7:16) "Master Mixes" is a 12" EP by Duran Duran, released in Asia, Hong Kong and the USA by Capitol Records-EMI-Masterdisc on 20 June 1987 and in Brazil during December 1987. The 12" vinyl edition released in Asia, Hong Kong and the USA is a double one-sided record, housed in a plain white stickered sleeve. The Brazilian edition was issued in a picture sleeve in December 1987 for promotional purposes, to coincide with the Hollywood Rock Festival shows in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in January 1988. Rumour had it that the band were readying either "American Science" or "Vertigo" as a likely fourth single from the album Notorious, commissioning remixes in anticipation. However, as both "Skin Trade" and "Meet El Presidente" failed to enter the top 20, plans for a fourth single were quietly scrapped. Masterdisk released this Master Mixes collection, compiling the unused remixes, as well as a further mix of "Skin Trade" and a megamix called "Notoriousaurus Rex" in time for Duran Duran's USA leg of The Strange Behaviour Tour in June and July 1987. **As a special bonus I have included "Skin Trade (S.O.S. Dub)" which was taken from the US "Meet El Presidente" 12" promo single. This mix has never appeared on CD.
Tracklist: 01.Duran Duran - Meet El Presidente (The Presidential Suite) (7:12) 02.Duran Duran - Meet El Presidente (Meet El Beat) (5:30) 03.Duran Duran - Meet El Presidente (45 Mix) (3:40) 04.Duran Duran - Vertigo (Do The Demolition) (4:43) "Meet El Presidente" is the 16th single from Duran Duran, and the third single from the Notorious album. According to a studio report in Star Hits magazine, one of the early drafts of this song was called "One of the Faithful." A demo version by that name can be found on several bootlegs. The album version of the song is considerably different from the single and video versions, and from all the remixes. The former's original key and tempo are maintained, but mixes elements of the master to differing degrees for the single release, the main ones being a more emphatic, up-front mix for the percussion, brass, and backing vocal tracks, throughout the song. "Meet El Presidente" was backed by album track "Vertigo (Do The Demolition)". This was the second single from Notorious to have an album track as b-side. "Meet El Presidente" peaked at #24 in the UK on April 25,1987 in the United States the song readhed #70 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart on May 2, 1987.
Tracklist: 01.Duran Duran - Skin Trade (Stretch Mix) (7:41) 02.Duran Duran - Skin Trade (Album Version) (5:57) 03.Duran Duran - We Need You (2:51) "Skin Trade" is the second single from Duran Duran's Notorious album, and the band's 15th single in total. It was released in January 1987, reached #22 on the UK Singles Chart, and #39 on the Billboard Hot 100. The music for "Skin Trade" was written long before Simon LeBon finally finished the lyrics. The title for the song was derived from the Dylan Thomas book Adventures in the Skin Trade which John Taylor had on him during recording of the album. It was shortened to "Skin Trade" and LeBon eventually wrote the melody and lyrics for the track while spending an evening in Taylor's Upper West Side Manhattan apartment. The lyrics reflect on how everyone is selling themselves, and "there's a little hooker in each of us". The single was quite a departure for the band. Simon LeBon sang in falsetto, Le Bon admits he was channeling The Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger on their song "Emotional Rescue". A horn section played a prominent role in the track, as played by The Borneo Horns. The band persevered with the single and many aspects of their future business took inspiration from "Skin Trade". They called their publishing company Skin Trade Music Ltd. and the Notorious tour was called the "Strange Behaviour Tour" (a reference to that line of the song). Likewise, a 1987 remix EP and a 1999 double CD collection of remixes were also called Strange Behaviour. Andy Taylor was no longer an official member of Duran Duran by that time, but he was credited as a session guitarist on this song, although apparently he did not participate in the recordings. Meanwhile the new guest musicians, Steve Ferrone and Warren Cuccurullo, played the drums and lead guitars respectively. Nile Rodgers played some lines of the rhythm guitar. In a retrospective review of the single, AllMusic journalist Donald A. Guarisco praised the song. He wrote: "The music lends contrast to the angry tone of the lyrics by creating a sultry, mellow melody that juxtaposes verses with a soft, hypnotic ebb and flow with an ever-ascending chorus that revs up the song's inherent drama." The b-side to "Skin Trade" was the only original b-side released during the Notorious era. Entitled "We Need You", it was written and recorded in 1986 while the band awaited the return of Andy Taylor for a recording session. It was the first recording to feature just the three remaining members of Duran Duran - Nick Rhodes, John Taylor and Simon Le Bon. Two further mixes of "Skin Trade" (S.O.S. Dub & Parisian Mix) were completed, but not released commercially during the "Skin Trade" release cycle. They appeared on a US 12" promo and on a UK 12" promo, backed with remixes of the next single "Meet El Presidente". The "Parisian Mix" was also released on the promo-only Master Mixes EP.

English rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees covered "The Passenger" in 1987 for their all-cover-versions album Through the Looking Glass. The group revamped the song by adding brass arrangements. Released as the second single from that album, it peaked at number 41 in the UK singles chart. Iggy Pop praised their version and stated: "That's good. She sings it well and she threw a little note in when she sings it, that I wish I had thought of, it's kind of improved. The horn thing is good." The song was featured at the end of Tonya Harding's biographical film I, Tonya (2017).
Tracklist: 01.ZZ Top - Velcro Fly (Extended Mix) (6:39) 02.ZZ Top - Legs (Special Dance Mix) (7:50) 03.ZZ Top - Sleeping Bag (Extended Mix) (6:12) 04.ZZ Top - Stages (Extended Version) (5:04) 05.ZZ Top - Velcro Fly (Dub Version) (5:46) In memory of bassist Dusty Hill 1949-2021.

The limited edition project includes rare remixes from the band's 1980s output. Three of the tracks were US Billboard Dance Hits Legs #13 (1984), Velcro Fly #43 (1986), and #41 (1986). This project was released to coincide with the Japan tour of that period as shown on the obi-strip in Japanese (来日記念盤). Unlike many Rock bands ZZ Top embraced the Twelve-Inch single format releasing many during their long career. ZZ Top has sold over 25 million albums in the US with additional sales internationally.
Tracklist: 01.Giant Steps - Another Lover (12" Dance Mix) (7:40) 02.Giant Steps - Another Lover (7" Edit - New Bass) (4:10) 03.Giant Steps - Another Lover (House Dub) (7:25) 04.Giant Steps - Another Lover (LP Version) (4:11) "Another Lover", sometimes titled "(The World Don't Need) Another Lover", is a 1988 song by English duo Giant Steps, from their debut album The Book of Pride. Written by vocalist Colin Campsie, bassist/keyboardist George McFarlane and record producer Gardner Cole, the song was a top 20 hit single in the United States. Released in the middle of 1988, "Another Lover" peaked at number 13 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in November. In addition, the single peaked at number 13 on the Singles Sales chart, number 12 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart, and number 25 on the Adult Contemporary chart. Due to the success of "Another Lover" in the U.S., Giant Steps joined a wave of British acts at the time, including Breathe, Scarlett and Black and the Escape Club, who became "American pop stars" before being exported "back for re-release in Britain." McFarlane said of the single's UK re-release, "Already, we are noticing a better reaction to the record this time around." He added, "It's getting more air play, and the general vibe is a bit better—all because it was a hit in America." Campsie said "When we started out, this is the sound we went for, we were recording lead vocals, and I was knocking them out in three-quarters of an hour. I'm real proud of that. We try not to be too nit-picky about records. If it's good the first time you sing it, then that's very good. The spontaneity has to be there." AllMusic writer William Cooper described the song as "a catchy piece of dance/pop fluff." The song was featured as the opening track to the 1989 comedy film Loverboy starring Patrick Dempsey.
Tracklist: 01.Mel & Kim - That's The Way It Is (Acid House Remix) (7:34) 02.Mel & Kim - That's The Way It Is (Club Mix) (6:39) 03.Mel & Kim - That's The Way It Is (Special Mix) (6:45) "That's the Way It Is" is a hit single by British pop duo Mel and Kim that was featured on the soundtrack album of Coming to America, starring Eddie Murphy. The song was written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman. The single peaked at #10 in the UK, becoming their fourth consecutive top 10 hit. By the time of the single's release, Melanie Appleby had been diagnosed with cancer and had withdrawn from the public eye in mid-1987. Appleby discharged herself from hospital to record the vocals for the track. The sisters made Mel's illness public at the time of the release of this single, and both appeared on the Wogan show in April 1988 while Mel was still undergoing treatment, as part of European Cancer Week. "That's the Way It Is" would be the last release of the duo, as they disappeared from the public eye again while Mel Appleby continued her cancer treatment. She succumbed to pneumonia in January 1990, her immune system weakened by chemotherapy. Some of the songs she co-wrote with Kim Appleby during the last 2 years of her life were later released on Kim's solo album released in late 1990.

Tracklist: 01.Tiffany - Radio Romance (Dance Mix) (6:56) 02.Tiffany - Radio Romance (7" Version) (4:03) 03.Tiffany - Can't Stop A Heartbeat (4:42) "Radio Romance" is the second single from Tiffany's second album Hold an Old Friend's Hand in the US and first from the album in the UK and Australia. By early 1989 radio was changing and the genres played were switching to hip hop and R&B music. There was less room for young pop acts such as Tiffany. As a result, "Radio Romance" failed to achieve the success of her previous singles. It made the Top 40 in the US and managed to become a hit in the UK, where it reached #13. In Japan, the song and Tiffany were featured in TV commercials for Meiji "Lucky" chocolate sticks. The music video for "Radio Romance" was one of Tiffany's most surreal. In the video, she plays a waitress in a diner who calls the radio request line often to request a song for her secret crush. The problem is that he is holding hands with her best friend. Later in the video, Tiffany dances with others in a what looks like a dream sequence. As the video progresses, a child appears with a magic wand which furthers the video's fantasy nature. To promote the single in the US, Tiffany performed the song on the Mickey Mouse Club and The Arsenio Hall Show.

Tracklist: 01.Mavis Staples - Christmas Vacation (3:25) "Christmas Vacation" is the opening song of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation performed by American rhythm and blues and gospel singer, actress, and civil rights activist Mavis Staples. Though the film didn't have a soundtrack release - and Lindsey Buckingham's de facto Vacation theme "Holiday Road" is nowhere to be heard - there was an original song that kicked off the film and put things in the appropriate spirit. Mavis Stapes' "Christmas Vacation" was written by the husband-and-wife team of Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, who helped write '60s pop classics like "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" and "On Broadway." Staples was, of course, well-known as a member of the family gospel-soul group The Staple Singers - but 1989 found her restarting her solo career after a decade away. And she did it with a very notable ally: "Christmas Vacation" and that year's album Time Waits for No One was released on the Paisley Park label, owned by '80s megastar Prince - who would write and produce most of that album as well. Despite several popular songs being present in the film, no official soundtrack album was officially released. The same track appears on both sides of this promotional single.

Tracklist: 01.Electric Light Orchestra - Getting To The Point (4:28) 02.Electric Light Orchestra - ELO Megamix (10:07) 03.Electric Light Orchestra - Secret Lives (3:28) I found "Getting To The Point" to be very fitting for the world that we find ourselves in today. "Getting to the Point" is a song by the rock group Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) from their 1986 album Balance of Power. Released in the UK as the last single from the album in July 1986, it was the last original release from the band for 15 years. Due to a strike on Epic's distribution department at the time of its release, the single did not make much of an impression on the singles chart. It peaked at number 95 in the UK. There was no release in the rest of Europe. The B-Side of this single is the 1986 Balance of Power album-track "Secret Lives". It was meant to be a separate single outtake as labelled on the Balance of Power album cover (Dutch pressings with JET or EPIC Label Catno. 26467). There was also a UK 12 inch Epic 3 track version with the "ELO Megamix" on the B-side. The mix featured the songs from A New World Record, Out of the Blue, Discovery, Time and Balance of Power. It was mixed by Paul Dakeyne for DMC.

Tracklist: 01.New Order - Shellshock (Extended Version) (9:41) 02.New Order - Shellshock (Dub Version) (7:32) “Shellshock” is a single released by British group New Order in March 1986. The song originally appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Pretty in Pink one month prior to its single release. Production is credited to New Order and John Robie, and is loosely inspired by the 1983 Robie-produced R&B club hit, “One More Shot” – a studio project where Robie performed under the band name, C-Bank, and featuring vocals by Jenny Burton. The single had differing B-sides; in the UK the 7″ came with the recycled “Thieves Like Us Instrumental” which also turned up in the movie Pretty in Pink (although not on the soundtrack), while the US 12″ promo included a “Dub Mix”. The U.S. 12″ Promo boasts an extended remix of the song running nearly ten minutes, arguably New Order’s longest recording behind the original cut of “Elegia”. For the release of the popular singles compilation Substance, the original Pretty in Pink soundtrack version was not used, as is widely believed, but an edited version of the 12″ remix cut down to six and a half minutes omitting an entire verse of vocals. It is this version that appears most often on CD. As yet, the 9:41 single remix remains unavailable on CD, but the Pretty in Pink soundtrack version contains all of the original vocals. The cover artwork on the 12 inch single is by English photographer Geoff Power and is unique in that the typo ‘Alex’ on the front top cover was not added by Peter Saville, the designer.

Released as the album's leading single, it became a worldwide hit, reaching the top five in Sweden and Belgium as well as peaking on the top spot on the national singles chart in Norway. It peaked at number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 in September 1986, behind "Take My Breath Away" by Berlin and "Stuck With You" by Huey Lewis and the News.
Tracklist: 01.Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls (Remix '86) (5:02) 02.Pet Shop Boys - Theme For The Pet Shop Boys (Part 1/Remix '86) (5:04) "West End Girls" was the first Pet Shop Boys song released on a label, and is arguably the song most commonly associated with the band. The original version of the song was released in 1984 produced by famed Hi-NRG mogul Bobby Orlando, the single was released on his Bobcat Records label. It was not a huge hit in the Boys' home country, but it did fairly well in the States and in Italy. Under the Bobby O umbrella, 'West End Girls' was remixed and repackaged several times, saturating the world's record stores with multiple formats of this single. In 1986 after the band signed with Parlophone Records the song was remixed, and titled "Remix '86" this was to capitolize off of the re-recorded hit version that had been released in 1985.
Tracklist: 01.Run-DMC - Walk This Way (5:09) 02.Run-DMC - Walk This Way (Instrumental) (3:36) 03.Run-DMC - My Adidas (2:48) "Walk This Way" is a song originally recorded by the American rock band Aerosmith. Written by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, the song was originally released as the second single from the album Toys in the Attic (1975) from their LP Toys in the Attic. In 1986, the hip hop group Run-DMC covered "Walk This Way", in collaboration with Aerosmith (with its leaders Steven Tyler and Joe Perry on vocals and guitars, respectively). While working on Raising Hell, Rick Rubin pulled out Toys in the Attic. At shows, Run-DMC had freestyled over the first few seconds of the song on a loop, not knowing what the full song sounded like, or even hearing the lyrics. While Joseph Simmons and Darryl McDaniels had no idea who Aerosmith were at that time, Rubin suggested remaking the song. Neither Simmons nor McDaniels liked the idea, though Jam Master Jay was open to it. They didn't want the record to be released as a single even after recording with Tyler and Perry, and were shocked when it was played on both urban and rock radio stations. "I never even thought 'Walk This Way' would be a single," Rubin recalled. "Not that I didn't like it, but I didn't think in those terms." DMC called it "a beautiful thing" in a trailer for Guitar Hero (This later appeared in a scene from the 2011 film The Smurfs). This version of "Walk This Way" charted higher on the Billboard Hot 100 than the original, peaking at number 4. It was also one of the first big hip hop singles in the UK, peaking at number 8. The song marked a major comeback for Aerosmith, as they had been largely out of mainstream pop culture for several years while Tyler battled addiction and Perry and Brad Whitford were out of the band. Their 1985 comeback album, Done with Mirrors, had also not met commercial expectations. Aerosmith followed "Walk This Way" with multi-platinum albums and Top 40 hits, starting with Permanent Vacation and its hit "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" in 1987. In 2008, "Walk This Way" was ranked number 4 on VH1's "100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop". This version of the song is currently ranked as the 148th greatest song of all time, as well as the second best song of 1986, by Acclaimed Music. The chorus of Run-DMC's cover contains a pitch alternation that Aerosmith adopted in most future live performances. In collaborations, the other singer often says "talk this way" every alternate line of the chorus. This rap-style delivery may explain why the song worked so well as a hip hop song when it was covered eleven years later.

Tracklist: 01.Beastie Boys - She's Crafty (Special Version) (3:36) 02.Beastie Boys - No Sleep Till Brooklyn (Special Version) (4:07) "No Sleep till Brooklyn" is a song by the New York hip hop group the Beastie Boys, and the sixth single from their debut studio album, Licensed to Ill. One of their signature songs, it describes an exhaustive tour and all the events that make it tiresome, but also emphasizes their determination not to rest until they reach their home base of Brooklyn. "No Sleep till Brooklyn" was a popular concert favorite for the Beastie Boys and traditionally used as their closing song. Among other references to then-popular metal, the title is a play on the Motörhead album No Sleep 'til Hammersmith. The song has been several covers and parodies including Stutter Rap (No Sleep til Bedtime) by Morris Minor and the Majors. Kerry King, guitarist for Slayer, played the guitar riffs and solo; Slayer had released an album produced by Rick Rubin in 1986 (Reign in Blood). In a different tuning, the song interprets "TNT" by AC/DC. More metal commentary and adaptation is added by the video, directed by Ric Menello, as a parody of glam metal. Later in their career, the Beastie Boys continued to perform the song live, although with altered lyrics. "M.C.A.'s in the back because he's skeezin' with a whore," was changed to "M.C.A.'s in the back with the mahjong board", and "Autographed pictures and classy hoes" was changed to "Autographed pictures to nobody knows." The song features one of many homages to New York City's boroughs, and has been described as "joyful ranting". Bob Dylan played the song on the "New York" episode of Season 1 of his Theme Time Radio Hour show in 2007, noting the Beastie Boys were not merely a "flash in the pan" in his introduction.

Tracklist: 01.Nine Inch Nails - Down In It (Skin) (3:46) 02.Nine Inch Nails - Down In It (Shred) (6:53) 03.Nine Inch Nails - Down In It (Singe) (7:02) "Down in It" is the debut single by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released on September 15, 1989. Taken from the band's debut album Pretty Hate Machine, it was the first song ever written by frontman Trent Reznor. The song's outro contains lyrics referencing the nursery rhyme "Rain Rain Go Away". In 2010, Reznor admitted that the song was his attempt to make a rip-off of the Skinny Puppy song "Dig It" from the 1986 album Mind: The Perpetual Intercourse. The first track on the single edition, "Down in It (Skin)", is the mix found on Pretty Hate Machine. The cover art is very similar to Joy Division's first album Unknown Pleasures, with Joy Division always being cited as an influence by Reznor, and Nine Inch Nails later covered the Joy Division song "Dead Souls" on the soundtrack to the 1994 film The Crow. Around the time of the single's release, the band lip-synced a performance of the song on the dance music show Dance Party USA. The footage, originally thought to be lost, was rediscovered in 2012 and went viral after being uploaded to YouTube. Reznor responded to the video on his Twitter account, stating that the band had decided to appear on the show after deciding it was "the most absurd choice [they] could come up with at the time" for a television program on which they would be interested in performing, but were surprised when they were actually booked to appear on the program.

Having finished the 1980s with the Decade singles compilation, Duran Duran found the 1990s a new challenge, in which success would initially elude them. The lukewarm success of "Violence of Summer" would shadow the band for the next few years until 1993's "Ordinary World" returned them to chart success. The single reached number two in Italy but fared poorly in other countries, reaching number 20 in the United Kingdom and number 64 in the United States. The B-side, "Throb", is an ambient instrumental remix of Liberty album track "My Antarctica". The use of a remixed album track would be repeated with the inclusion of "Water Babies", a remix of "All Along the Water" on the "Serious" single.

Tracklist: 01.Public Enemy - 911 Is A Joke (Vocal) (3:19) 02.Public Enemy - 911 Is A Joke (Instrumental) (3:19) 03.Public Enemy - Revolutionary Generation (Vocal) (5:45) 04.Public Enemy - Revolutionary Generation (Instrumental) (5:45) "911 Is a Joke" is a 1990 song by American hip hop group Public Enemy, from their third album, Fear of a Black Planet. The song is solely performed by Flavor Flav. It was released as a single and became a hit in April 1990, reaching number 15 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart, and number one on the Hot Rap Singles chart, becoming their second number-one rap chart hit after "Fight the Power". It also reached number one on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart. This was due largely to its sales, which were unusually high for the level of mainstream airplay it received; Billboard reported that only one of the stations on its Top 40 panel was playing it. The song is about the lack of response to emergency calls in a black neighborhood, but specifically references the poor response by paramedic crews and not the police, which is a common misconception regarding the track; the "911" in the title of the song refers to 9-1-1, the emergency telephone number used in North America. The song was written by Public Enemy member Flavor Flav and producers Keith Shocklee and Eric "Vietnam" Sadler of The Bomb Squad, Public Enemy's production team. Flavor Flav is the featured vocalist. Among the samples used in "911 Is a Joke" is Vincent Price's laughter from "Thriller" by Michael Jackson. Other samples include "Flash Light" by Parliament, "Misunderstood" by Mico Wave, "Think (About It)" by Lyn Collins, "Gottago Gottago!" by Robin Harris, "Devil With the Bust" by Sound Experience, "Feel Like Dancing" by Wilbur "Bad" Bascomb, and "Hit by a Car" and "Singers" by Eddie Murphy. According to law professors Peter DiCola and Kembrew McLeod, if the samples used on "911 Is a Joke" and the other tracks on Fear of a Black Planet had been cleared for copyright under 2010 rates, each copy of the album would have generated a loss of five dollars per album sold, instead of a profit. In 1995, English pop rock band Duran Duran covered "911 Is a Joke" on their Thank You album.

The record was produced by American producer Bobby Eli who has worked with El Debarge, Stevie Wonder, Red Hot Chili Peppers and George Clinton, among others. Both tracks on this record were remixed by one of alternative rock's unsung heroes, Tim Palmer. In the early '80s, Palmer worked as an assistant engineer at Utopia Studios in London, England, helping musicians like Mark Knopfler and Dead Or Alive. In the latter half of the '80s, Palmer became a producer, and his keen ears and technical knowledge contributed to edgy post-punk groups such as The Mighty Lemon Drops, The Mission, Gene Loves Jezebel, and House Of Love acquiring airplay on U.S. modern rock stations; Palmer gaves the band a radio-friendly sheen that didn't mollify their sound. In 1989, Palmer produced David Bowie's debut LP with Tin Machine. The Big Supreme is one of those great obscure 80s offerings that really make you crave more of them sadly they never released a full-length LP, and disappeared just as fast as they began.

Taylor would leave the group for a solo career. He would return in 1996 for the State of Affairs album.

"The Right Stuff" also went to number one on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart for one week. It peaked at number 71 on the UK Singles Chart and re-entered the charts in 1989, this time peaking at number 62 with a remixed version.

Greg Dub Version) (5:46) 03.Paula Abdul - Forever Your Girl (Saunderson-Grosse House Of Love Mix) (6:35) 04.Paula Abdul - Straight Up (Kevin Saunderson Club Mix) (6:50) 05.Paula Abdul - Next To You (4:23) "Forever Your Girl" is a song by American singer and choreographer Paula Abdul from her 1988 eponymous debut studio album. Written and produced by Oliver Leiber, who also produced her previous single "(It's Just) The Way that You Love Me", the single version was released on February 20, 1989, by Virgin Records. Following the unexpected success of "Straight Up", the song continued Abdul's newfound commercial success, becoming her second chart-topper on the Billboard Hot 100 for two consecutive weeks. "Forever Your Girl" spent two weeks at the top of the US Billboard Hot 100 in May 1989, reached number 28 on the Dance Club Songs chart, and number 11 on the Adult Contemporary chart. The song is about loyalty in a relationship. The female vocalist proclaims that, despite rumors that others may be interested in her, none of those matter because she will remain faithful to the man she loves; she will remain "forever his girl." The single version differs slightly from the album version, as it uses more of the background male vocal featuring the Wild Pair, Bruce DeShazer, and Marvin Gunn. The accompanying music video for the song was directed by David Fincher, and features Abdul acting as a choreographer and director of a children's performance. An 8-year old Elijah Wood appears in the video, playing the kid in the suit. It also parodies Robert Palmer's Addicted to Love video with three girls dressed like the women on the video.

It was released on 23 September 1993 by Island Records with a cover of the Consolidated song "Typical Male" as the B-side. The single met with considerable success, topping the US dance chart. Both songs were to be featured on Jones' then-forthcoming Black Marilyn album, planned for a 1994 release, but eventually shelved due to an unknown reason.
Tracklist: 01.Nicki French - Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree (12" Mix) (4:31) 02.Nicki French - Never In A Million Years (3:48) 02.Nicki French - Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree (7" Mix) (3:02) "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" is a Christmas song written by Johnny Marks and originally recorded by Brenda Lee in 1958; it has since been recorded by numerous other music artists. By the song's 50th anniversary in 2008, Lee's original version had sold over 25 million copies around the world with the 4th most digital downloads sold of any Christmas single. In 1995 British singer Nicki French covered the song with a euro-House production by Mike Stock, and Matt Aitken of SAW. The track was recorded at Union St. London and remixed by Peter Day. "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" was only issued in the UK as a white label 12" promo. This one did not have any cover art so I put together a custom sleeve.
Tracklist: 01.Olivia Newton-John - I Honestly Love You (4:04) 02.Olivia Newton-John - I Honestly Love You (Remix Version) (4:04) "I Honestly Love You" is a song recorded by Olivia Newton-John originally released in 1974 on the album Long Live Love in United Kingdom and If You Love Me, Let Me Know in the United States. The song became a worldwide pop hit, her first number-one single in the United States and Canada. The single was first released in Australia as "I Love You, I Honestly Love You", as per its chorus. The song was written by Jeff Barry and Australian singer and composer Peter Allen. At the 17th Grammy Awards in 1975, the single won both Record of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female. Newton-John re-recorded "I Honestly Love You" for her 1998 sixteenth studio album Back with a Heart, with Babyface on background vocals. The new version was released as a single, debuting on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1998. It was her first song to chart in the Hot 100 for six years, peaking at No. 67 and spent 12 weeks on the chart. It reached No. 18 on the Adult Contemporary chart and No. 16 on the Country Music Sales chart. The song was sent to radio in a more contry flavored remix version along with an urban version for pop and adult contemporary stations. The 1998 version was produced by David Foster.

Tracklist: 01.Dead Or Alive - Something In My House (Mortevicar Mix) (6:59) 02.Dead Or Alive - Something In My House (XXX Naughty Mix) (6:59) “Something In My House” Clean & Dirty Mixes is a rare 1986 UK 2-track white label promo-only 12" featuring the “Mortevicar Mix” and the now legendary “XXX Naughty Mix” with explicit samples from The Excorist. This 12″ was pressed to only 500 copies and was distribeted by Dead Or Alive after Epic Records refused to release it. The “Mortevicar Mix” is a cleaned up edit of the “XXX Naughty Mix” containing samples from the 1985 horror film "House" along with samples from "The Exorcist". “Something In My House” was released in the UK in December 1986 as the second single from the band's third studio album, Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know. The single peaked at #12 on the UK singles chart. In the United states the song reached #85 on the Billboard Hot 100, and #3 on the Billboard Dance Chart.
Tracklist: 01.Elton John - Heartache All Over The World (Megamix) (8:00) 02.Elton John - Highlander (3:35) 03.Elton John - Heartache All Over The World (4:00) "Heartache All Over the World" is a song by English musician Elton John from his 20th studio album, Leather Jackets (1986). Written by John and Bernie Taupin, it was released as the album's lead single in September 1986, charting at number 45 in the UK Singles Chart and at number 55 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and reaching the top 10 in Australia, where it peaked at number 7. The song talks about not being able to date for a night. In 2001, Elton John regarded "Heartache All Over the World" as the worst song he had ever recorded, calling it "pretty insubstantial". John performed the song four times during his Tour De Force tour in Australia in 1986, which is notable for John's problems with his vocal cords during that time.
Tracklist: 01.George Michael - A Different Corner (Single-Edit) (3:57) 02.George Michael - A Different Cornar (Instrumental) (4:13) 03.George Michael - A Different Corner (Full-Length Version) (4:30) "A Different Corner" is a song written and performed by George Michael that was released on Epic Records (Columbia Records in the US) in 1986. "A Different Corner" was written by Michael while Wham! were at their peak as a duo, and during a low point in his life: "I felt like shit. I went in and recorded exactly the way I felt, and that's the way it sounds. It was partly Wham! and partly the end of a relationship. It was the farthest I'd ever fallen, and in a very short period of time. I had to get rid of it somehow, I had to write about it. That's a really perverse side that I'm sure a lot of writers have—'I feel like shit, but maybe I'll get a good song out of it.'" Michael admitted that "A Different Corner" was the "most honest" and personal song he had ever done. He elaborated further on the song's meaning: "That was about a very quick relationship, a here today gone tomorrow one. It's amazing how emotional you can get in a short period of time and how long it can last. Someone can really shake you up and it takes you a long time to get yourself back on your feet; that was what that was about." According to Michael, the song took roughly 14 hours to write and record from beginning to end. The synthesizer textures were created with a Roland Juno-60 synthesizer. At the time of its release in March 1986, Michael was still a member of pop duo Wham! (the song is included on Wham!'s album Music from the Edge of Heaven only released in Japan and North America, as well as their compilation album The Final, released worldwide), though he and partner Andrew Ridgeley had announced that they would split in the summer after a farewell single, album and concert. Michael had already enjoyed a solo number one on the UK Singles Chart in 1984 with "Careless Whisper", which was credited as Wham! featuring George Michael in the US. After radio DJ Simon Bates first aired "A Different Corner" on Radio 1, he rated the song so highly that he immediately played it again from the beginning. Michael went back to the top of the UK chart with "A Different Corner", becoming the first solo act in the history of the UK chart to reach number one with his first two releases, although he was hardly an unknown or new act on either occasion due to his previous hits with Wham!. The song reached number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100, thus becoming the first single credited solely to Michael to become an American top-ten hit which was enough to make American executives at Epic Records confident that Michael would be viable as a solo artist and helped get the gears in motion for his solo album debut Faith. It was the first song to reach number one in the UK charts to be written, performed and produced by the same person. The song was also remixed for his compilation Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael. This version omitted the guitar and Michael's background vocals during the instrumental break.
Tracklist: 01.Men At Work - Down Under (Extended Mix) (5:29) 02.Men At Work - Sail To You (Extended Mix) (5:50) "Down Under" is a song recorded by Australian rock band Men at Work. It was originally released in 1980 as the B-side to their first local single, "Keypunch Operator", released before the band signed with Columbia Records. Both early songs were written by the group's co-founders, Colin Hay and Ron Strykert. The early version of "Down Under" has a slightly different tempo and arrangement from the later Columbia release. The best-known version was then released on Columbia in 1981 as the second single from their debut album Business as Usual (1981). The hit song went to number one in their home country Australia in December 1981, and then topped the New Zealand charts in February 1982. The song topped the Canadian charts in October 1982. In the United States, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on 6 November 1982 at No. 79, and reached No. 1 in January 1983. Topping the US Billboard chart for four non-consecutive weeks, it eventually sold over two million copies in the US alone. Billboard ranked it at No. 4 for 1983. In the UK, the song topped the charts in January and February 1983: the only Men at Work song to make the UK top 20. The song also went to No. 1 in Denmark, Ireland, Italy and Switzerland, and was a top 10 hit in many other countries. "Down Under" is perceived as a patriotic song in Australia; it remains popular and is often played at sporting events. In January 2018, as part of Triple M's "Ozzest 100", the 'most Australian' songs of all time so far, "Down Under" was ranked number 2 behind Cold Chisel's "Khe Sanh". Colin Hay told Songfacts: “The chorus is really about the selling of Australia in many ways, the over-development of the country. It was a song about the loss of spirit in that country. It’s really about the plundering of the country by greedy people. It is ultimately about celebrating the country, but not in a nationalistic way and not in a flag-waving sense. It’s really more than that. This 12" was released in Australia to promote the band's first Greatest Hits package titled "81-85" which was issued in November 1986.
Tracklist: 01.Olivia Newton-John - Toughen Up (Dance Remix) (8:04) 02.Olivia Newton-John - Toughen Up (Instrumental Remix) (5:16) “Toughen Up” was the second single taken from the thirteenth studio album “Soul Kiss” by Australian singer Olivia Newton-John on MCA Records. Written by Graham Lyle and Terry Britten (What's Love Got To Do With It) “Toughen Up” had originally been offered to Tina Turner but was rejected. “Toughen Up” failed to make a dent on the U.S. Billboard charts but was quite popular in dance clubs due in part to a 12″ dance remix by John “Jellybean” Benitez. “Toughen Up” did chart in Australia peaking at #69. The song includes a guitar solo by Grammy winning guitarist Lee Ritenour. The music video opens showing a topless Olivia wearing riding pants and holding a riding crop. In the video directed by David Mallet Olivia plays the part of a head mistress for a girls school where she teaches her female students to “Toughen Up” against the men that have done them wrong. Neither track have appeared on CD or digitally.
Tracklist: 01.Kim Wilde - You Keep Me Hangin' On (Extended Mix) (9:02) 02.Kim Wilde - Loving You (4:52) 03.Kim Wilde - You Keep Me Hangin' On (7" Edit) (4:11) During the week of June 6, 1987 Kim Wilde ruled the dance floor in clubs across America with her chart topping cover of the Supremes classic "You Keep Me Hangin' On" which has since become a gay club classic, and should be on every Pride playlist. "You Keep Me Hangin' On" is a song written and composed by Holland–Dozier–Holland. It was first recorded in 1966 by American Motown girl group the Supremes. "You Keep Me Hangin' On" was covered in an updated version by English singer Kim Wilde in 1986. Wilde's version was a total re-working of the original, completely transforming the Supremes' Motown Sound into a hi-NRG song. It was released as the second single from Wilde's fifth studio album, Another Step (although "You Keep Me Hangin' On" was the LP's first worldwide single, as the first single had been released only in selected countries). The song reached number two in Wilde's native United Kingdom, and number one in Australia. It also became Wilde's second and last top-40 entry in the United States following "Kids in America" (1981), as well as her most successful song in that country to date, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for one week in June 1987. It later ranked as the 34th best-selling song of 1987 on Billboard's Hot 100 year-end chart that year. "You Keep Me Hangin' On" was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for UK sales in excess of 250,000 copies.
Tracklist: 01.Paul Lekakis - Boom Boom (Let’s Go Back To My Room) (A Phil Harding Remix) (6:41) 02.Paul Lekakis - Boom Boom (Let’s Go Back To My Room) (A Phil Harding Dub Remix) (5:46) A pretty face won’t get you everywhere… but it got you pretty damn far in the ’80s. And it certainly helped gay musician Paul Lekakis, who went from upstate New York waiter, to model and professional party boy in Milan, to international pop star in 1987 with a little bop called “Boom Boom (Let’s Go Back to My Room.)” The song will certainly resonate with those who survived its ’80s dance-floor domination… and anyone who’s attended a Pride party in the past five years. Lekakis, who is HIV-positive, appeared on the cover of Poz magazine. In the article he recalls major record labels wanting to market him as a teen idol in the 1980s, which did not interest the already out young singer. “Boom Boom (Let’s Go Back to My Room)” is the debut single by American singer and model Paul Lekakis. Originally released in 1987 on ZYX Records, then picked up by Polydor Records for a wider release, the song peaked at #43 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the U.S. and at #60 on the UK Singles Chart in England. It fared better in other parts of the world, where the song spent five weeks at #1 on the ARIA Charts in Australia, from April 13 through May 11 of 1987. It also topped music charts in Japan and South Africa, and peaked at #2 in Canada. The song is noteworthy because it is a well-known 1980s dance club track that nonetheless failed to appear on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart upon its initial release. Subsequent remixes have appeared on that chart, however, as well as some of Lekakis’ other dance recordings. The song was popular in the LGBT community and helped to establish his career, both as a singer and as an actor. Several remixes were commissioned for the track including the rare UK only Champion Remix by mixmaster Phil Harding of PWL released on Champion Records a London based major long-running soul, dance and house music label.
Tracklist: 01.Pet Shop Boys - In The Night (7" Edit Version) (3:39) “In the Night” is a song by UK duo Pet Shop Boys, about the subculture known as the Zazous, which appeared in France during the German occupation of France in World War II; concerned with fashion and music, and allied with neither the Nazis and Vichy France nor the French Resistance, they were distrusted by both sides. Neil Tennant, having read about the movement in a book by David Pryce-Jones, asks, in the song, the question of whether this apathy essentially amounted to collaborationism. The song was scheduled to be released as a single in Germany on March 4, 1987 but was withdrawn with only a 7″ promo being issued. The Artur Baker 7″ edit is exclusive to this release and has never appeared on CD to the best of my knowledge. The full Arthur Baker mix appeared on the album “DISCO”.
Tracklist: 01.Secession - Sneakyville (Extended Mix) (6:18) 02.Secession - Reflections (2:24) 03.Secession - All The Animals Came Out At Night (4:05) 04.Secession - Sneakyville (CD Mix & Edit) (7:37) "Sneakyville" was the eighth and final single released by Scottish synth-pop band Secession. the song was taken from the band's only studio LP "A Dark Enchantment" released on Siren records. The original incarnation comprised Peter Thomson (guitar, keyboards, synthesizer and vocals), Jack Ross (guitar, synthesizer and vocals), Jim Ross (bass guitar) and Carole L. Branston (keyboards and vocals). The band used a small pre-programmed drum machine. Oddly none of the band’s singles charted in the UK or US. After the release of “Sneakyville” the band broke up and some members went on to form alternative rock band The Vaselines. ++ As a bonus track I have included the Hot Tracks Remix Service mix. Mark watkins worked with both the CD & 12" versions. He blended them together with great expertise and voila! this great song now has a smooth intro, and intense break and a long exit, for those procrastinating Dee-jays... The Hot Tracks Mix was taken from Series 8, Issue 1.
Tracklist: 01.Pet Shop Boys - Heart (12" Remix) (8:57) 02.Pet Shop Boys - Heart (Dub Mix) (5:16) 03.Pet Shop Boys - I Get Excited (You Get Excited Too) (4:53) "Heart" is a song by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys from their second studio album, Actually (1987). It was released as the album's fourth and final single on 21 March 1988. The song topped the UK Singles Chart for three weeks in April 1988, becoming the duo's fourth and final chart-topper to date in the United Kingdom. The group had initially written the song for Madonna, though they never asked her to record it, instead keeping it for themselves. Written by Chris Lowe and Neil Tennant, "Heart" was the fourth and final single from the duo's second studio album, Actually. A new mix different to the album version was released as a single in March 1988, ascending to the top of the charts to become the duo's fourth—and, to date, last—UK number-one single. It was also successful across Europe. The genesis of the song goes back to the sessions for the duo's first album Please in early 1986 with Shep Pettibone. Originally, the duo had planned to offer it to Hi-NRG singer Hazell Dean or—more notoriously—Madonna, but they ultimately kept it for themselves. The duo's version of the song was intended to be used in the Steven Spielberg-produced film Innerspace, but the dance sequence it was intended for was at the wrong tempo for the song. The song was originally called "Heartbeat", but was changed after Culture Club drummer Jon Moss announced the formation of a group named Heartbeat UK. The lyrics are more traditional than most Pet Shop Boys songs, being a straightforward declaration of love—a characteristic common in many pop songs. On the commentary of the Pet Shop Boys' live video album Cubism, Tennant reveals that the "oh – ah – oh'oh ah" refrain which repeats throughout the song features the vocals of himself, Pavarotti and Wendy Smith (of Prefab Sprout). According to Tennant they were inspired by the song I Like You by Phyllis Nelson, which was produced by Shep Pettibone, who did a remix of Heart. The song was re-recorded for Actually with producer Andy Richards, and was mixed by Julian Mendelsohn. The single remix is an edit of the Richards' version with the use of wah-wah guitar, giving the song more of a 1970s sound. Despite topping the UK chart for three weeks and being a worldwide success, the duo themselves tend to dismiss it, with Lowe stating in 2001: "It just shows that chart positions aren't the be all and end all. 'Heart' isn't in the same league as 'Being Boring'." However, many fans regard the song highly and Pet Shop Boys like it enough to have performed the song on their 1989 tour, the Fundamental world tour in 2006 and 2007 as well as their Pandemonium tour in 2009–2010. When included on the retrospective PopArt: The Hits collection, the album version of the track was used for the UK release rather than the hit single mix, the reason for this is unknown. The single mix was included on the US release. Directed by Jack Bond, director of the band's 1987 film It Couldn't Happen Here, the music video for "Heart" is based on the 1922 film Nosferatu. The video opens with Tennant and his bride (played by model Danijela Čolić Prižmić) being driven to a castle with Lowe as his chauffeur. As he goes to bed with his bride, the vampire, played by Ian McKellen, spies them. Later, he seduces the bride and bites her. Finally, Lowe drives Nosferatu and his bride away, leaving Tennant to stare bitterly after them from a castle window. The video was shot in Mokrice Castle, Slovenia, then one of the Yugoslavia republics. "Heart" Remix is the second of two 12″ releases in the UK. The 12" Remix, and Dub Mix were omitted from the Actually Further Listening 1987–1988 (bonus disc) released in 2001 and again in 2018.

Tracklist: 01.George Harrison - Got My Mind Set On You (Extended Version) (5:19) 02.George Harrison - Got My Mind Set On You (Single Version) (3:51) 03.George Harrison - Lay His Head (3:51) "Got My Mind Set on You" (also written as "(Got My Mind) Set on You") is a song written and composed by Rudy Clark and originally recorded by James Ray in 1962. In 1987, George Harrison released a cover version of the song on his album Cloud Nine, which he had recorded on his Dark Horse Records label. The first time Harrison heard the song was during a visit to his sister in the United States in 1963–five months before the Beatles first appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show. His sister lived in the countryside of Illinois. While there, Harrison visited record shops and bought a variety of albums. One was James Ray's 1962 album that contained the song "I've Got My Mind Set on You." In January 1987, Harrison began recording the song at his Friar Park home studio, with Jeff Lynne (ELO) producing and playing bass and keyboards, Jim Keltner on drums, Jim Horn on sax, and Ray Cooper on percussion. Of Harrison's three number-one singles in the US, it was the only song not written or composed by Harrison himself. Not only was it the last US No. 1 hit by Harrison, but, as of 2022, his last top 10 hit in the US. When the song hit No. 1, it broke a three-way tie between Harrison, John Lennon, and Ringo Starr, all of whom had two No. 1 hit singles as solo artists (discounting Paul McCartney's work with Wings). It also happened to be the No. 1 single in the US the week immediately preceding the induction of the Beatles into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, making Harrison one of the few inductees to have an active single on the US record charts at the time of induction. Billboard ranked the song as No. 3 for 1988. The single's B-side is "Lay His Head", a remixed version of the unreleased song from Harrison's originally intended Somewhere in England album. The 12-inch version of the single also adds an extended version of "Got My Mind Set on You". In the UK, the single spent four weeks at number two. It was kept off the number 1 spot by T'Pau's "China in Your Hand" becoming the 5th best selling single of 1987.

A child prodigy, she started writing songs when she was 5 years old, and learned record production at the age of 12. She studied classical piano at New York's Juliard School of Music and has appeared in several Broadway stage productions, most notably, "Les Miserables" and in the London theatre production of "Grease". Gibson released her debut album Out of the Blue in 1987, which spawned several international hits, later being certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. One of those singles, "Foolish Beat", made Gibson the youngest female artist to write, produce, and perform a Billboard Hot 100 number-one single. Gibson is the sole songwriter on all of her singles to reach the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100. She was recognized by ASCAP as Songwriter of the Year, along with Bruce Springsteen, in 1989. After years of writing and producing her own material, a demonstration tape of Gibson's submitted to a radio personality was eventually shared with an executive at Atlantic Records. Based solely on Gibson's original song, "Only in My Dreams", she was signed to a development deal and began a promotional tour of club venues throughout the United States. Gibson spent much of 1986 and the beginning of 1987 building her songwriting catalog, while continuing to play club dates. During her promotional tour, Gibson continued attending classes at Calhoun High School in Merrick, New York, where she later graduated as an honor student. Diane Gibson, Debbie's mother and manager, accompanied her daughter on many of these track dates. "We played dance clubs, straight clubs, and gay clubs," Diane has said. The single "Only in My Dreams" was released in December 1986 and landed in the Billboard Hot 100 chart beginning in May 1987, peaking at number four that September. Atlantic Records and Gibson worked to complete her first album as a result of the good showing by the single. Following the success of "Only In My Dreams", "Shake Your Love" was released as the follow-up single and reached the Billboard top five. The "Shake Your Love" video was choreographed by Paula Abdul and was the first time MTV had visited Gibson on a video shoot. In 1987, while performing at nightclubs throughout the United States, Gibson recorded her debut album, Out of the Blue. Along with producer Fred Zarr, Gibson wrote, recorded, and produced it in four weeks. Four singles from the album reached the top five of the Hot 100 chart: "Only in My Dreams", "Shake Your Love", "Out of the Blue", and the number-one hit "Foolish Beat", followed by "Staying Together", which performed more modestly, reaching number 22. "Foolish Beat" set a record, making Gibson at 16 the youngest artist to write, produce, and perform a Billboard number-one single, as cited in the 1988 Guinness Book of World Records. She remains the youngest female artist to have done so. Out of the Blue became a hit album, and she had success in the UK and southeast Asia, filling stadiums with her Out of the Blue tour. By the end of 1988, Out of the Blue had gone triple platinum.
Tracklist: 01.Elton John - Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters (Part Two) (The Renaissance Mix) (6:18) 02.Elton John - Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters (Part Two) (The Da Vinci Version) (4:47) 03.Elton John - A Word In Spanish (4:38) 04.Elton John - Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters (Part Two) (The Self Portrait Instrumental) (4:56) Gay Icon Elton John made sure to send a message to people who were cast out like him. He reassured people who were not fitting in that they would eventually find their place. Over the years he has been working for AIDS prevention. He has also established the Elton John AIDS Foundation in 1992, which has raised more than $400 million. As well as an annual high-profile Oscar party which also raises money for AIDS prevention. "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters (Part Two)" is a song by English musician Elton John and songwriter Bernie Taupin from the album Reg Strikes Back. It was released as a 12" single in 1988 only in the United States. Although not a particularly popular song, some critics judged it as a "most intriguing" song or the "brightest moment" of the album. John said: "That's probably my favorite track on the album. It just has a great New York feel". He played both versions of the song sequentially in concerts from the release of "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters (Part Two)" in 1988 through to 1993. The song is about New York City and is a continuation of the song "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" from the 1972 album Honky Château. Although the song follows the same meaning of its predecessor, it has a very different tempo and instrumental arrangement, and is in many ways a more complex song, with a variety of key changes and unusual chords throughout the song. There is also a brief homage to the Beatles' song "Drive My Car" that can be heard during the trumpet solo, where Elton and the backup singers interject "beep beep, beep beep, yeah!".

On its first run on the U.K. charts in October 1987, it stalled at No. 58. It was one of the last songs recorded for the album, yet it would arguably become the band's signature song. This 12" is the 1988 reissue (mainly aimed at Europe and especially the U.K. where the single had previously stalled at No. 58 in 1987) which incorporated new artwork and packaging plus remixes Ben Liebrand. There was also a another more widley available 12" and CD single with remixes by Julian Mendelsohn. The Liebrand Remix was only released on 12" in the U.K.

"Just Got Paid" received a Grammy Award nomination for Best R&B Song at the 31st Grammy Awards in 1989. It lost out to Anita Baker's "Giving You the Best That I Got".

Tracklist: 01.Pet Shop Boys - Heart (Disco Mix) (8:28) 02.Pet Shop Boys - I Get Excited (You Get Excited Too) (4:54) 03.Pet Shop Boys - Heart (Dance Mix) (6:10) "Heart" is a song by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys from their second studio album, Actually (1987). Written by Chris Lowe and Neil Tennant, "Heart" was the fourth and final single from the duo's second studio album, Actually. A new mix different to the album version was released as a single in March 1988, ascending to the top of the charts to become the duo's fourth—and, to date, last—UK number-one single. It was also successful across Europe. The genesis of the song goes back to the sessions for the duo's first album Please in early 1986 with Shep Pettibone. Originally, the duo had planned to offer it to Hi-NRG singer Hazell Dean or—more notoriously—Madonna, but they ultimately kept it for themselves. The duo's version of the song was intended to be used in the Steven Spielberg-produced film Innerspace, but the dance sequence it was intended for was at the wrong tempo for the song. The song was originally called "Heartbeat", but was changed after Culture Club drummer Jon Moss announced the formation of a group named Heartbeat UK. The lyrics are more traditional than most Pet Shop Boys songs, being a straightforward declaration of love—a characteristic common in many pop songs. On the commentary of the Pet Shop Boys' live video album Cubism, Tennant reveals that the "oh – ah – oh'oh ah" refrain which repeats throughout the song features the vocals of himself, Pavarotti and Wendy Smith (of Prefab Sprout). According to Tennant they were inspired by the song I Like You by Phyllis Nelson, which was produced by Shep Pettibone, who did a remix of Heart. The song was re-recorded for Actually with producer Andy Richards, and was mixed by Julian Mendelsohn. The single remix is an edit of the Richards' version with the use of wah-wah guitar, giving the song more of a 1970s sound. Despite topping the UK chart for three weeks and being a worldwide success, the duo themselves tend to dismiss it, with Lowe stating in 2001: "It just shows that chart positions aren't the be all and end all. 'Heart' isn't in the same league as 'Being Boring'." However, many fans regard the song highly and Pet Shop Boys like it enough to have performed the song on their 1989 tour, the Fundamental world tour in 2006 and 2007 as well as their Pandemonium tour in 2009–2010. When included on the retrospective PopArt: The Hits collection, the album version of the track was used for the UK release rather than the hit single mix, the reason for this is unknown. The single mix was included on the US release.

Plus, there is that unique, sultry purr of a voice. Kitt appeared at many LGBTQ fundraisers and she spent a great deal of her time dedicating herself to working with the Gay Men’s Health Crisis and other HIV/AIDS charities. Her 1989 single Cha-Cha Heels, recorded with Bronski Beat, was thumping away at the dance clubs during the worst years of the plague and the club kids and the older clones fell in love with Kitt. In 1989, Jonathan Hellyer became Bronski Beat's lead singer, and the band extensively toured the U.S. and Europe with back-up vocalist Annie Conway. They achieved one minor hit with the song "Cha Cha Heels", a one-off collaboration sung by American actress and singer Eartha Kitt, which peaked at 32 in the UK. The song was originally written for movie and recording star Divine, who was unable to record the song before his death in 1988.

Tracklist: 01.Madonna - Hanky Panky (Bare Bottom 12" Mix) (6:27) 02.Madonna - Hanky Panky (Bare Bones Single Mix) (3:50) 03.Madonna - More (Album Bersion) (4:57) 04.Madonna - Now I'm Following You (Digital Mix) (6:58) "Hanky Panky" is a song by American singer Madonna from her soundtrack album I'm Breathless. It was released on June 12, 1990, by Sire Records as the album's second and final single. Written and produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard, the song was developed from a line in the parent film, Dick Tracy, talking about a woman who enjoys being spanked by her partner. Performed in a playful, “tongue-in-cheek” style, "Hanky Panky" is a jazz and swing song, keeping with the film’s general theme of the 1920s and 1930s, with a changing bassline and minor to major key-shift in the chorus. It caused some controversy in Ireland because of its innuendo and racy lyrics, with women's groups deeming them as harmful; Madonna later clarified that the lyrics were intended as a joke. The song garnered positive response from music critics, many of them highlighting its lyrical content. It was a commercial success, becoming a top-ten hit in many countries including Australia, Ireland, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States while topping the chart in Finland. Madonna has performed the song on two of her concert tours: Blond Ambition (1990) and Re-Invention (2004). The song has been covered by several tribute acts and was also performed on the television series Ally McBeal (1997). In 1990, Madonna starred in the film Dick Tracy as Breathless Mahoney—a new role introduced for her—with Warren Beatty, her boyfriend at the time, playing the titular character. After the shooting for Dick Tracy was over, Madonna started working on the soundtrack. She had begun recording three songs written by Stephen Sondheim for the film—"Sooner or Later", "More" and "What Can You Lose"—which would be part of the album, but also had to write and develop new songs comparable in style to her previous releases. She produced the entire album, including the Sondheim songs. "I want people to think of me as a musical comedy actress. That's what this album is about for me. It's a stretch. Not just pop music, but songs that have a different feel to them, a theatrical feel", she said at the time. Madonna recruited producer Patrick Leonard and engineer Bill Bottrell to help her with the project. She and Leonard toiled to create music that would fit the style and production of the film, set in the days of the Untouchables law enforcement. "Hanky Panky" was written and produced by Madonna and Leonard and was released as the second and final single from I'm Breathless on June 12, 1990. The cassette and the 7-inch versions had "More", another song from the album as its B-side, while the 12-inch releases had two remixes of the song by Kevin Gilbert. Cover photograph for the single was done by Patrick Demarchelier with Jeri Heiden designing the sleeves. As a BONUS TRACK I have included the Razormaid Remix Service ...Maid! How Slow Can You Go? #2 Digital Mix of "Now I'm Following You" a song which was also part of the I'm Breathless Soundtrack album. The song was not released as a single but an acetate promo 12" single does exist.

Tracklist: 01.Aqua - Barbie Girl (Spike's Plastic Mix) (8:45) 02.Aqua - Barbie Girl (Radio Edit) (3:15) 03.Aqua - Barbie Girl (Spike's Anatomically Correct Dub) (7:57) 04.Aqua - Barbie Girl (Extended Version) (5:14) "Barbie Girl" is a song by Danish dance-pop group Aqua. It was released in April 1997 as the third single from the group's debut studio album, Aquarium (1997). The song was written by band members Søren Rasted, Claus Norreen, René Dif, and Lene Nystrøm, and was produced by the former two alongside Johnny Jam and Delgado. It was written after Rasted saw an exhibit on kitsch culture in Denmark that featured Barbie dolls. The song topped the charts worldwide, particularly in European countries such as the United Kingdom, where it was a number-one hit for four weeks and remains one of the best-selling singles of all time. It also reached number two in the group's homeland and peaked at number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100, where it became Aqua's only top-ten hit until "Barbie World" (2023). It is Aqua's most popular work and was also performed as the interval act in the Eurovision Song Contest 2001. It also became the subject of the controversial lawsuit Mattel, Inc. v. MCA Records, Inc. The lyrics of the song are about Barbie and Ken, the dolls made by Mattel. Both the song and its music video feature Lene Nystrøm as Barbie and René Dif as Ken. As such, the lyrics drew the ire of Barbie's corporate owners, and a lawsuit was filed by Mattel. A footnote on the back of the Aquarium CD case precisely stated that "The song 'Barbie Girl' is a social comment and was not created or approved by the makers of the doll." "Barbie Girl" has sold more than eight million copies worldwide. It went on becoming a huge hit on several continents, remaining the most successful song by the band. It reached number one in more than 10 countries. In Europe, the single peaked at the top position in Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Scotland, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, as well as on the Eurochart Hot 100. In the band's native Denmark, the song debuted and peaked at number two. In the United Kingdom, it debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number two and reached number one the next week, on 26 October 1997. It stayed at that position for four weeks and has sold 1.84 million copies in the United Kingdom as of April 2017, making it the thirteenth best-selling single in the UK. Outside Europe, "Barbie Girl" peaked at number-one in Australia and New Zealand, number four in Canada and number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100. On the latter, it debuted at that position. It sold 82,000 copies in its first week and debuted at number five on the Billboard Hot Singles Sales chart. In September 1997, six months after the release of the song by Aqua, Mattel, the manufacturer of the Barbie doll, sued MCA Records, Aqua's North American record label. Mattel claimed that "Barbie Girl" violated their trademark and turned her into a sex object, referring to her as a "blonde bimbo". It alleged that the song infringed its copyrights and trademarks on the Barbie doll and that the song's lyrics had ruined the longtime popularity and reputation of their trademark and impinged on their marketing plan. Aqua and MCA Records claimed that Mattel injected their own meanings into the song's lyrics. They contested Mattel's claims and countersued for defamation after Mattel had likened MCA to a bank robber. The lawsuit filed by Mattel was dismissed by the lower courts, and this dismissal was upheld, though Mattel took their case up to the Supreme Court of the United States, but that appeal was later rejected. In 2009, Mattel released a series of advertisements and a promotional music video of the song, with modified lyrics, as part of a new marketing strategy brought in to revive sales. Despite this, the Mattel-produced film Barbie released in 2023 does not feature the original song, as stated by Ulrich Møller-Jørgensen, who manages lead singer Lene Nystrøm. "Barbie World", a remake of the song by Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice and Aqua, was later announced to be featured in the film and on the film's soundtrack.
Tracklist: 01.George Michael - Outside (Hex Hector 12" Vocal Mix) (8:48) 02.George Michael - Outside (Sharp "Unlocked" Remix) (8:28) 03.George Michael - Outside (Razor-n-Guido Orange 'e' Dub) (9:56) 04.George Michael - Outside (Album Version) (4:43) After George Michael was outed by the media, he returned to music with “Outside”, satirising his arrest for lewd conduct in an L.A. public restroom,
and sending a statement to anybody who thought he might retreat back into the closet. Its video was set in a men’s bathroom complete with disco ball and light-up floor, with Michael dressed as an LAPD police officer. "Outside" is a song by English singer-songwriter George Michael, released on 19 October 1998 as the lead single from his first greatest hits album, Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael (1998). It was released through Epic Records and reached number two on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Michael's most recent UK top-three hit. In Greece, Hungary, and Spain, the song peaked at number one. The song was Michael's first single since his arrest for engaging in a lewd act six months earlier by an undercover police officer in the public lavatoryl of the Will Rogers Memorial Park in Beverly Hills, California – an incident that prompted him to declare his homosexuality, which had been rumoured for some years but never publicly confirmed. Michael disparaged the incident in the lyrics, claiming he wanted an alfresco sex life because he was bored with lovemaking behind closed doors. Reference to the Beverly Hills affair came with the line "I'd service the community, but I already have, you see" (he was sentenced to 80 hours of community service for the offense) and direct samples of radio reports of his arrest. In a 2004 interview with Adam Mattera for UK magazine Attitude, Michael reflected: "I felt that lightening the stigma around cruising was the most immediately beneficial thing I could do. I know for a fact that when I was 16, 17, when I started cruising, that watching the Outside video would have taken some of the weight off my shoulders." The song was recorded at Sarm West in London with a string section and arrangement by Andrew Skeet. "Outside" peaked at number one in Greece, Hungary, and Spain. In addition, it reached number two in the United Kingdom, number three in Italy, number four in Denmark, number five in Iceland, number seven in Ireland, and number eight in Finland. On the Eurochart Hot 100, "Outside" reached number three in November 1998. Outside Europe, the song reached number three on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, number 11 in New Zealand, and number 13 in Australia. **This 12" Promo contains vinyl only U.S. remixes.

When DjPaulT posts a re-rip, it seems you just replace the original with the new one. But I think it is not safe to assume that the new rip is actually better. I have noticed sometimes it is worse. Have you considered keeping the old rips in the torrent too? Or maybe make a separate torrent of old/replaced rips?
