Originally released in 1987 “The Tina Turner (Montage Mix)” is a nearly nine minute megamix of Tina Turner’s biggest hits from the 1980’s, remixed by Les ‘The Mixdoctor’ Adams for DMC Productions. The track originally appeared as the B-side of the UK “What You Get Is What You See” 12″ and the German 7″. Capitol Records also released the track as a Limited Edition 12″ promo in the UK. In 1990 the “Montage Mix” was added to the UK “Look Me In The Heart” Limited Edition CD single which is now out of print.

This is a single sided advance copy UK 12″. The single  is quite unique because it features a custom picture label. Some copies also have “What You Get Is What You See (Dance Mix)” on the flip side. There are also copies that have a plain Capitol Records label.
