Your previous rip was already excellent !
This is one is even better. Tx for that !

I have this “base” version twice:

  • once on the remix you just re-ripped
  • once on the Introspectice 3 x LP

And indeed….still no trace on CD !

Perhaps ungrateful to ask Paul, but in the vein of PSB remixes any chance of posting “Heart (Remix)” ? Many thanks, Nubben

hi paul, nice to see another excellent pet shop boys track up here. and one of the rarer ones too. although this remix is, as it says, a little more basic. it’s still good. and it’s nice to hear some demo versions of the songs. they developed a lot of these songs much earlier, and decided to finish them for introspective. in fact, the picture was taken during their 2nd album. i just got their first issue of annually, which shows where all those polaroid pictures came from. there were 3 spanish mixes that were on cassette, they are on… Read more »

I remember the original transfer you did as I still play it regularly. I always thought the Base Mix was quite unique from the rest of the mixes.

Surprised it still hasn’t been released on CD or digitally either.

Thanks Paul 🙂

Thanks, Paul!
I only know one song by the Pet Shop Boys but I’ll check this one out seeing as how it’s a rarity and you took the trouble to share it 🙂

Love DD (although it´s not my favourite), love the remix (although I prefer the Alternative Mix), love the b-side (although I prefer the Disco Mix). Looking forward to listening to your new upload – although I loved the original one 😉
Have a wonderful weekend, Paul and Jeff and everyone around. Times have gone even crazier again. Don´t let it get you down.

What a great, fun track – and a great extended version (with a correspondingly longer music video version out there too)!

Thanks for this delightful gem in outstanding quality, Paul! All the best to you and yours!
