Wow. She looks so young on this cover, especially compared to her more recent photos. Where has the time gone?

Wonderful! Thank you so much. I’d love to see a re-up of Love Pains and Losing My Mind as those links are dead. 🙂

This is amazing.
Please keep posting these more obscure releases as they are a musical education for us all.
I love these PSB collaborations.
I would love to hear more of Liza with Pet Shop Boys.

Before I bought her “Results” album, I first heard this track via the remix services. I love it so much, “Baby!” Liza’s record is one of my favorite discs and I so wish she continued making records with the ‘ Boys. This is fantastic Paul and I’m grateful for this 12-inch!

LOVE IT…this I always considered a PSB album with ‘Liza with a Z’ on vocals….one of my favorites from my “record store employee” days! Consider doing more someday! I dunno, maybe some got their hands on the super deluxe import? I missed out on that so the remixes are a bonus for me!!!

Poor response could be due to burn-out from the Results Deluxe version. 2 CDs of remixes of 3 songs, one of them was Don’t Drop Bombs.
