I will post the other lists as well.
Great list. I still need to list my favorite 12" Rock or Pop selections. Those are mostly extended versions and mostly not the Dance variety. Some you have listed above like a few from Prince or Genesis etc. I try to keep the sources from CD but some just are not available or are too expensive for me to buy. Pat
I have used the 12 inch remix on another volume so that will follow in another tracklisting but thanks for your opinion which is always welcome and it helps me to compile even better lists in the future.
I would replace it with another song, by another artist, or another depeche mode song. Good listing, and nice effort on compiling these. later -1
Don't know if this series has been mentioned (there's no way I'm reading thru 68 pages to check!), but in the UK, Crimson records have released eight 3CD sets of… Twelve Inch Eighties
That can happen with 68 pages. But i believe this hasn't been shared before. And this wasn't on my 12 inches list either so thanks!
I like this one myself. Got it on maxi single for only 50 cents. The reason i like it is the diversity in it. So many differents effects and breaks were used. And the female rap parts are great. One of my favourite twelvies.
Wow this a very informative thread! Much appreciated! As far as my 80's favorites keep in mind I'm more of a rock guy but here goes.... Lou Gramm - READY OR NOT The Firm - RADIOACTIVE Toto - STRANGER IN TOWN ZZ Top - VELCRO FLY Level 42 - SOMETHING ABOUT YOU (extended mix) Daryl Hall - FOOLISH PRIDE (extended) Peter Wolf - LIGHTS OUT David Gilmour - BLUE LIGHT Lou Gramm - MIDNIGHT BLUE Steve Miller - I WANNA MAKE THE WORLD TURN AROUND (my all time fave 12") Heart - THERE'S THE GIRL Steve Winwood - FREEDOM OVERSPILL U2 - DESIRE (Hollywood remix) Most of these are longer with added parts not heard on the original (extra vocals, solos, etc.)
