Thank you! I love Club Nouveau
Did any of the DJ subscription services do a club mix of “Rumours” and “Jealousy”? It seems like an obvious idea, though some of the former members involved might object.
Should be called Rumors of Jealousy (The Mash Up Mix) if so!
Good one! Wish I’d thought of that.
This is amazing. Thank you so much. Love this track! Appreciate the pristine rip. Sounds incredible. Have a wonderful weekend. I know what I’ll be listening to…
Amazing! Thank you for adding this one, Paul! I hope you and the whole community have a fantastic weekend!
Paul This Was And Still Is A Club Banger!! Thanks For The Rip!!

Thanks, guys, I appreciate you! 🙂
I really love the instrumental on this one, thanks!!!
Excellent, thanks Paul!! A follow-up to last week’s Why You Treat Me So Bad? post. From the comments, this will make a lot of people happy. For those completists like myself, this is a thrill to fill in the gaps of our collection. Thank you!!
You’re welcome, Retro Hound. 🙂
