Great song. Great band. Richard Butler still sounds great. Looks the album art inspired the look for the mobile site which looks awesome.
Hi Paul, i do appreciate all your work and share music. Some one stole some vinyl long time ago and this one could never find it again. And i found the ghost in you one but was not in good sahpe, did you have this last one?
Thanks a lot
Happy 2016
Blessings.
First time I heard of this mix. Thanks and Happy New Year!
Thank you very much Paul
Thanks for this, Paul! Love the Furs 🙂
I love Julian Mendlesohn’s work, so thanks Paul for this rarity 🙂
You’re welcome Junior 🙂

You’re welcome Gonzalo 🙂
Hey Paul- Thank you SO much for posting this!! You’re the best. This is my favorite version of this song. And its not available on CD. This website is so amazing. Thanks again.
You are very welcome Ross. Enjoy! 🙂
Paul, do you know if the double 7″ of this release features unique versions of Heaven & Here Come Cowboys? They are both listed as “US Single Mixes” but they could just be the normal versions. Any idea?

Hi Ross I don’t have that double 7″ so I am not sure but looking at the track lengths on other releases they look about the same. Maybe someone who has it will chime in and let us both know.
Thanks Paul! I’m guessing they are not new versions as well. If anyone knows, I’d love to hear.
And thanks again Paul. This site is such a valuable resource for 80s music lovers.
Hi Ross!
this version is available on this CD!
