A great song remains to be a great song through time.
I never knew there were different 12inch versions. My record has a running time of 5:06.
I edited it to run about 6 minutes, starting with the instrumental part which
originally comes in the latter third of the 5:06 version.
Still, great voice. I would have loved to hear more from them.

Hello!
A general question:
Is it possible to publish the covers in higher resolution?
2200 * 2200 or similar?

Love this, thanks Paul! This track totally reminds me of a mixture of synthpop and motown. 🙂

“Desire” has been one of my favorite songs since I bought this 12” in 1983!
And it’s never been released on CD before. Thank You for a fantastic rip!!

I really love this song. It’s great to see it given the DJPT treatment. I only had these vesrions in mp3 format, so I’m very happy to upgrade! Listening to the vocal mix now and it sounds so good! Thanks 😎
