These Shep mixes are new to me too. Can’t wait to hear them.
Thanks Paul 🙂
Awesome! I actually just picked up this single and was planning on ripping it myself, but I’m glad you’ve done it because your work is so masterful. So great that you’ve added some more Pretty Poison… I absolutely adore them! 💘 thanks so much Paul xo
Thanks, supertracks, but I got these on cd..
Except for the She’s main mix, I don’t believe the other ones were released on CD.
This is a VINYL blog so who cares if it is on CD. Paul’s rip blows the CD versions away!!!
WORD!!!
Not sure if I was familiar with this mix before.
Checked it out on YT. Big thumbs up from me.
Very nice break at 03:40 🙂
Thanks for drawing my attention to this Paul..
You Rock 🙂
Best best wishes
You’re welcome, Jay. Check out the mixes from yesterday too they are the original 1984 mixes. I kind of prefer the 🙂
Yes Sir. I will.. lol 🙂
Paul!! Now this is the 12-inch I remember!! So cool you’ve dusted it off and posted it! Pretty Poison was a great band and I really liked their stuff. Burning The Ground is so rich in its diversity. It’s full-on spectrum of fun!!!
Jeff
I like these mixes but I prefer the originals that I posted yesterday. Still great to have both twelves. There is also a promo which I don’t have right now called “Welcome To Our House Mix”.
