Grace Jones – Megamix (France 12″ Promo)

Hi Paul. It’s working now. Must be the server. Fleetwood Mac Big Love FLAC is not working though. Could you possibly fix this, please? Thank you 🙂

HI Paul, can you check to see if these links are still working. It’s just timing out for me (on FLAC). Much appreciated, Thank you 🙂

I Think maybe it’s Alan Couthlard done this megamix for DMC

Hey Paul — We’d love to hear a clean copy of the “Feel Up” 12″ mix (never released on CD). Since you’re in a Grace Jones mood…Thanks much!

Hey Paul, I wonder if you’d be interested in a donation of a few Grace Jones 12” singles I recently acquired. I was going to try to rip and digitize them myself, but it was an epic fail with the equipment I have–And you do such an excellent job with all your rips, just thought I’d make the offer. The ones I have are ‘Love Is The Drug – Paul Smykle Remix’ ‘Cry Now, Laugh Later/Nipple To The Bottle – Dubs’ and a DMC compilation with the Sanny X remix of ‘La Vie En Rose’ –Please let me know if… Read more »
